"As Philadelphians and members of the advisory Commissions representing diverse backgrounds, we recognize and stand in solidarity with all individuals, families, and communities that have faced racial violence and systemic injustice. Racism has plagued our nation since its birth. To the Black, Brown, Indigenous, and other People of Color who live with the trauma, pain, grief, and rage brought about by the ignorance of the past and present, we see, hear, and value you."
