The % of Black & Hispanic Philadelphians who feel unsafe in their neighborhoods is double the % of white Philadelphians. This disparity is possible because Philadelphia is still one of the most segregated cities in the nation. An unacceptable reality. inquirer.com/opinion/editori…
In a segregated city, race determines safety. That’s unacceptable. | Editorial

Segregation is at the core of so many of Philadelphia’s problems. How do we move from moral indignation to meaningful action?

Fighting back tears with a lump in my throat seeing this... and to think the US only welcomed 5 Syrian refugees thus far in 2018. 5. Amidst all this devastation, we can and must do more to welcome refugees #RefugeesWelcome #WeWelcomeRefugees (see my previous tweet) teapaw.org/happysonship/status/96… – at Elkridge, MD
