Hamm and company came to Orange after having the 70th consecutive Justice Monday protest outside the Peter Rodino federal building in downtown Newark and placed flowers at the monument to honor all the men and women who died in the Civil War, especially the unsung black soldiers that fought for the Union against the Confederacy.
