Asa Coleman Asa Coleman was an African-American politician and former slave. He served in the Virginia House of Delegates from December 6, 1871 to April 2, 1873 and served on the Committee on Asylums and Prisons. In 2012 he was one of several African-American politicians recognized by the Martin Luther King Commission and the state of Virginia for his government service.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?121+ful+SJ89 )〕 ==Background== Little is known about Coleman's early life, but it is estimated that he was born around the early 1830s in North Carolina. He was born into slavery and worked as a slave until he gained his freedom and moved to Virginia at an unknown point of time, although records show that he worked as a carpenter in Halifax County and purchased land in the late 1800s. Coleman married twice and had at least one son with his first wife, Amanda. His date of death is unknown, but was at some point after his name showed up in the public records on February 14, 1893, when he deeded his belongings to his wife and other heirs.〔
