My

the
guests

I
would
ask

B
Good

give
honor
to
God
to
council
president
Clark
to
my
councilman
and
told
the
council
individuals
that
a
spring
without
in
whose
presence
or
soul
takes
delight
in
whom
an
affliction
we
call
a
comfort
by
day
and
a
song
in
the
night,
a
hope,
a
salvation
or
all
Almighty
God.
We
come
to
you
today
we
come
acknowledging
you
as
our
God
or
save
your
father
God.
B
We
bless
you
because
you
got
all
by
yourself
and
as
we
come
God
we
confess
our
sins,
because
there
are
many
like
the
sense
of
the
sea,
but
you
said
that
if
we
confess
you're,
faithful
and
just
to
forgive
us
of
our
sins
and
to
cleanse
us
from
all
unrighteousness
and
so
God,
we
ask
for
your
forgiveness
today
for
sins
of
omission
and
sins
of
commission,
but
God
as
we
calm
our
nation
is
in
crisis.
We
know
God
that
you
do
all
things
right.

A
E
E
Devon
that
in
just
a
moment
about
them,
Devon
prep
is
a
private
Catholic
preparator
School
in
Devon,
but
their
colors
are
the
same
colors
as
our
city
and
I
thought
them
coming
down
here
today
and
working
with
their
teachers
to
show
the
history
of
our
city
and
city
hall
is
something
that
can
educate
all
students
and
I
believe
it
is
incredibly
important
to
educate
these
students
on
the
way
our
local
government
works,
with
the
hope
that
they
one
day
get
involved
in
their
local
government
Thank
You.
Mr.
president,.
A
F
A
Thank
You,
Councilwoman
and
good
morning,
and
welcome-
and
thank
you
all
for
coming
today
at
this
time,
I
would
like
to
dispense
with
our
regular
order
of
business
and
I
would
like
to
thank
everyone,
particularly
these
young
people,
that
have
come
here
today
to
witness
their
government
in
action.
We
genuinely
appreciate
you
taking
time
out
of
your
busy
day
to
be
here.
We
hope
that
your
stay
here
is
today
is
a
knowledgeable
one,
but,
more
importantly,
a
pleasurable
one,
so
much
so
that
you
come
back
again
so
again.
Thank
you
so
much
for
being
here.
A
A
G
F
These
brave
students
walked
miles
from
every
corner
of
our
city
to
demand
their
civil
rights
and
basic
fairness
in
their
schools.
Today
we
honor
you
all.
We
honor
your
bravery,
we
honor
your
legacy
today.
It
is.
It
is
a
fact
that
we
have
african-americans
in
leadership
as
teachers
as
administrators
and
superintendents.
Today,
african-american
history
is
a
mandated
course
in
the
School
District
of
Philadelphia,
and
today
students
still
use
the
tools
of
nonviolent
protest
like
walking
out
and
speaking
out,
to
demand
even
greater
civil
rights
for
themselves
and
for
all
of
us.
F
Today,
our
youth,
especially
our
black
brown,
immigrant
and
LGBTQ
youth,
are
carrying
the
baton
of
justice
and
showing
us
what
it
means
to
believe
and
to
fight
with
passion
and
energy
and,
as
we
are
today
on
the
brink
of
restoring
local
control
back
into
our
public
schools
in
Philadelphia.
Let
us
remember
that
this
fight
for
education,
equity
remains
alive
and
well
because
of
the
courage
of
those
who
came
before
us.
This
movement
continues.
I
Whereas
students
who
protested
racial
and
justice
and
school
segregation
demanded
the
right
to
refuse
to
salute
the
United
States
flag
or
say
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance,
without
penalty,
greater
representation
of
black
students
and
Union
sponsored
apprenticeship
programs,
the
freedom
to
express
themselves
through
wearing
African
clothes
and
jewelry,
and
the
use
of
African
names
and
whereas
Walter
Palmer
of
the
black
people's
unity,
movement
and
William.
Mathis
of
the
Philadelphia
chapter
of
the
Congress
of
racial
equality,
provided
youth
activists
with
training
and
resources
to
develop
an
organizational
strategy
and
create
a
student's
Bill
of
Rights.
I
H
Whereas
with
strategy
and
materials
in
place,
student
activists
led
a
series
of
organized
student,
walk
outs
throughout
November
and
October
and
November
1967,
the
first
demonstration
occurred
on
October
26
when
300
gratz
high
school
students
exited
during
lunchtime
to
rally
outside
of
the
school
holding
signs
that
read.
The
school
board
doesn't
serve
the
black
community
and
we
need
an
independent
school
board.
H
300
students
at
Bock,
Technical,
High
School,
followed
suit
and
whereas
these
demonstrations
culminated
on
Friday
November
2
17th
1967
with
the
walkout
and
non-violent
gathering
of
over
3,500
black
student
protesters
from
South
Philadelphia
high
school
William,
Penn,
gratz,
Germantown,
Kensington,
Bartram,
mark
West,
Philadelphia,
Benjamin,
Franklin,
Edison,
High,
School
and
I
am
so
sure.
Girls
high
school
as
well.
H
Superintendent
mark
shed
met
with
March
leaders
upon
their
arrival
to
acknowledge
demands
and
attempt
to
address
student
grievances.
Student
leaders,
yelled
updates
from
the
windows
of
the
school
district
building,
eventually
declaring
that
the
superintendent
and
the
school
board
officials
had
agreed
to
almost
all
of
their
demands.
J
Some
students
held
their
ground
and
some
leaders
called
for
students
to
fight
back
and
whereas
activists,
school
district,
employees
and
bystanders
said
they
broke
down
in
tears.
Witnessing
the
violence
against
the
youth
school
board.
President
and
former
mayor
Richardson
Dilworth
described
the
events
this
way
things
were
under
control
until
commissioner
Rizzo,
without
our
requests
saw
it
fit
to
loose
a
to
let
loose
a
couple
of
hundred
men,
swinging
clubs
and
beating
children
and.
K
So
these
Millennials
believe
they
started
civil
rights
and
all
that
stuff.
Well
here
they
are
behind
us
right
here,
all
right,
so
where's.
The
School
District
of
Philadelphia
responded
to
the
protests
by
meeting
with
students
and
staff
from
predominantly
black
schools
and
discussing
means
to
quell
racial
tensions
and
improve
teaching
practices.
Schools
establish
community
parent
student
committees
in
predominantly
african-american
high
schools
to
diversify
the
curriculum
and
better
serve
the
african-american
students
by
providing
space
and
resources
for
the
black
Students
Union
and
to
meet
and
the
November
seventeenth.
K
E
And
whereas
in
2005
the
School
Reform
Commission
chairperson,
under
the
under
the
direction
of
Commissioner
Sandra
Dungy,
Glenn
honored,
the
determination
of
student
protests
by
unanimous,
miss
miss
Lee,
approving
a
district-wide
mandated
course
in
african-american
history.
The
SRC
recognized
that
the
goal
of
the
1968
resolution
had
not
been
fully
realized
that
the
concerns
related
to
academic
achievement
addressed
by
this
resolution.
We
maintain
a
concern
in
2005
in
an
effort
to
close
the
largest
academic
achievement
gap
in
the
district.
B
Whereas
Philadelphia's
youth
activists
led
by
black
brown
and
immigrant
of
youth
of
color,
continued
to
lead
for
the
call
of
education,
equality
and
racial
justice
in
their
schools
and
in
our
city,
including
the
sit-in
during
the
state
takeover
of
the
Philadelphia
schools,
without
a
decry
school
budget
cuts
and
the
immigrant
students
who
boycott
it
and
won
the
federal
civil
rights
settlement
around
racial
harassment
at
their
school,
they
demand
a
more
racially
diverse
teaching
force.
The
democratic
governance
and
an
end
to
the
school
to
Prison.
F
Now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
Council
of
the
city
of
philadelphia
commemorates
the
50th
anniversary
of
the
november
17
1967
citywide,
black
student
walkout
and
honors,
the
continuing
tradition
of
student,
organizing
and
activism,
around
education,
equity
and
racial
justice
in
the
city
of
philadelphia.
Thank
you
so
much.
L
Good
afternoon,
everyone
and
I
want
to
thank
councilman,
Jung
and
city
council
for
having
us
here
and
honoring.
Us
today
is
a
very
humbling
experience
50
years
ago.
Just
imagine
our
children
and
we
were
all
children,
then
going
to
demonstrate
for
equality
and
justice
for
schools
that
cater
to
our
needs,
and
that
was
education.
This
is
what
the
children
wanted
50
years
ago.
Why
are
we
still
fighting
for
the
same
thing
now.
L
Just
imagine
your
children,
many
had
never
been
in
a
demonstration
at
all
in
their
lives,
going
to
the
Board
of
Education
just
to
voice
their
concerns.
I
was
standing
a
few
feet
from
Rizzo.
Commissioner
is
a
an
old
fan.
Who
was
a
councilman?
Then
I
was
standing
on
the
side
and
I
heard
Earl
ban
plead
with
Rizzo
to
tell
him
not
to
attack
the
children.
L
Alvin
said
they're
only
children
reso
said
get
their
asses.
This
is
what
was
done
to
our
children.
Imagine
a
child
not
having
anything
to
fight
with
digging
up
dirt
out
of
the
ground
to
throw
to
defend
themselves
when
I
was
thrown
to
the
ground.
I
was
dragged
about
a
half
a
block,
formerly
known
as
dick
trailer
mister
mgz.
While
they
were
dragging
me
by
the
front
door
of
the
Board
of
Education,
he
jumped
on
my
body
to
keep
them
from
dragging
me.
L
They
beat
him
with
those
black
jacks
unmercifully
I
want
to
thank
the
children,
know
that
you
are
our
future.
You
have
to
continue
the
fight
and
through
you
we
have
new
ideas
to
the
old
folks,
us
included.
We
don't
know
everything
you
have
to
listen
to
these
children
they're
the
ones
that
are
on
the
frontlines
in
these
schools.
They
know
what's
going
on,
our
children
are
our
best
and
future
commodity
in
this
world.
They
deserve
in
education
to
our
young
people
out
there
if
they
kept
education
from
the
enslaved
Africans.
L
This
is
a
question.
You
must
ask
yourself:
why
are
they
trying
to
keep
it
from
us
now
all
right
to
our
older
staff,
our
representatives,
fight
for
these
children?
You
have
to
fight
it.
I
know.
Money
goes
a
long
way,
but,
as
I
said
before,
when
I
spoke
here
about
Cecil
be
more,
you
have
to
look
out
for
the
little
person
you
have
to
and
I.
Thank
you.
M
Thank
You,
mr.
president
and
I
want
to
thank
the
president
and
the
City
Council
in
general,
I'd
like
to
thank
councilman
Helen
Gen
in
particular
for
driving
this
initiative
and
I
want
to
I.
Want
you
to
take
away
from
this
a
couple
of
things.
One
is
I
want
you
don't
focus
on
the
attack
on
the
children,
I
went
to
jail,
I
was
charged
with
conspiracy,
riot
mayhem,
assault
and
battery
profanity,
etc.
That's
not
the
focal
point.
I'd
been
used
to
going
to
jail
for
these
matters
for
years,
but
it
was
my
babies.
M
These
are
all
my
babies
right,
I
was
33
years
old
at
the
time,
and
so
what
happens?
Is
you
I
want
you
to
remember?
It
did
not
happen
like
a
flash
mob.
This
was
this
started.
I
started
this
journey
in
1955,
1955
I.
Want
you
to
picture
Philadelphia
in
1955.
There
were
no
black
police
officers.
There
were
no
black
bank
tellers.
There
were
no
black
telephone
operators.
There
are
no
blacks,
driving,
try,
caps,
attacks
that
have
been
driving
of
any
recognition
of
the
elves
and
the
trains,
etc.
They
didn't
exist.
M
Blacks
were
sequestered
into
ghettos
and
housing
stock
that
had
been
run
over
from
previous
years.
There
are
no
black
professors
at
University
of
Pennsylvania,
where
I
teach
now
I
started
50
years
ago,
training,
students
at
Penn
on
racism
and
racism
courses
and
still
continue
do
it
today.
So
the
black
people's
universe,
the
black
people's
University,
created
a
template,
1955
a
grassroots
template,
organizing
and
training,
and
teaching
young
people
from
preschool
to
high
school
and
Beyond
how
to
take
care
of
themselves
self
helps
of
reliance
to
self-determination.
How
to
become
the
future
leaders.
M
You
cannot
become
a
leader
without
training.
You
cannot
have
social
change
without
training.
If
you
fail
to
plan
you're
planning
to
fail
and
the
reason
it
was
so
successful
because
we
had
a
template,
we
had
an
organizational
template.
That
is
the
same
template
we
used
in
order
to
make
sure
that
there
were
blacks
inside
a
city
council
back
then
there
was
no
of
a
councilman
ho.
There
were
no
asian-americans
in
Council
councilman
Sanchez.
There
were
no
Hispanic
Latinos.
We
use
that
plant
that
template
to
force
people
to
recognize
Hispanic
Latino
population.
M
M
He
or
her
I
was
able
to
work
on
the
inside
and
the
outside
I
work
with
bill
Barrett
of
the
Congress
that
we,
gender,
a
legendary
Barrett
of
South
Philadelphia,
seeing
Franny
Jimmy
tae-young
fumo
I've
worked
with
all
the
people
on
the
inside,
as
well
as
the
outside,
which
gave
us
leverage.
So
a
time
1965
came
around.
We
had
perfected
a
template,
the
same
one
that
would
go
on
to
create
the
National
Black
Power
Conference,
the
Black
Pete
of
the
Black
Panther
Conference,
the
war,
an
anti-war
movement.
It
was
not
by
accident.
M
These
children
were
willing
to
spend
a
year
training.
They
couldn't
wait
to
get
from
these
schools
to
get
to
training
at
black
boots.
University,
we
were
doing
intercept
two
hair.
They
came
there.
It
was
orchestrated,
and
out
of
that
came
a
young
Dave
Richardson.
He
started
with
me.
It
was.
He
has
18
19
years
old.
He
became
the
first
and
the
youngest
person
ever
in
the
history
of
Pennsylvania
be
led
to
be
an
ax
legislature.
24,
a
John
White
jr.,
a
John
White
jr.
M
became
a
councilman
and
a
legislator,
and
when
already
becomes
Secretary
of
Education,
a
young
Chaka
Fattah,
a
young
Curtis
Jones,
they
were
able
to
learn
from
the
lessons.
A
flock
of
Fatah
and
David
Fatah
helped
the
health
of
your
mojo
based
upon
the
template.
It
was
organized
these
young
people
required
to
come
for
these
trainings.
They
had
to
take
this
information
back
across
the
city.
They
had
to
engage
the
gangs
in
the
neighborhood.
They
had
engaged
the
churches,
the
black
churches.
M
They
didn't
have
cell
phones,
they
didn't
have
copy
machines.
We
took
a
mimeograph
machine
at
black
people's
University
and
built
5100
page
copies
of
african-american
history.
Then
they
had
to
distribute
it
all
across
the
city.
Please
take
away
from
this.
These
are
not
victims.
These
are
not
victims.
These
are
people
who
stood
up
at
the
plate
and
they
became
the
models.
I
watched
the
idea
of
an
older
people
elders
taking
my
taking
time
with
me.
We
created
that
model.
I
watched
it
in
this
council
I
watched,
Swartz
George
Schwartz.
M
M
These
are
the
things
these
are:
the
outcomes
of
serious,
organizing
and

If

I
would

mr.
P
O
P
Of
all
I'd
like
to
thank
councilman,
Clarke,
councilman,
Curtis,
Jones,
Councilwoman,
Cindy
bass,
Councilwoman
Sanchez
councilman
and
the
king
of
this
bill,
the
illustrious
Councilman
David
O,
counselman,
Van,
Daan's,
Reynold
Brown
and
the
queen
of
this
bill,
Councilwoman
Blackwell
and
all
of
the
council
people,
including
Kenyatta,
that
is
supporting
this
bill.
Let
me
thank
all
of
y'all
for
doing
the
right
thing
at
the
right
time.
Let
me
first
say
that
we
very
much
support
this
enforcement
bill.
P
It
adds
integrity
to
this
bill
to
ensure
that
any
policies
or
procedures
or
contracts
that
come
into
the
city
is
fairly
distributed.
Amongst
all
of
us,
black
and
brown
people
included
to
be
fairly
represented
on
these
contracts,
and
these
these
places
of
work
innocent.
This
helps
make
sure
that
people
don't
take
us
for
a
joke.
This
helps
make
sure
that
the
people
in
this
city
is
careful
about
you.
So
when
they
vote
for
you,
they
know
that
you'll
be
caring
about
them
too.
This
helps
helps
you
helps.
Council
helps.
P
The
city
helps
those
who
live
here.
Pay
taxes
work
here
and
if
they
out
of
work,
can
gain
work
for
employment.
This
helps
that
all
people
in
this
city-
and
if
you
come
in
here
for
a
contract-
and
you
sign
an
agreement,
you
can't
go
back
later
and
say
oops
my
bad
I'm,
gonna
change
it
in
midstream.
You
want
to
sign
it.
You're
gonna
do
what's
right.
Are
you
not
gonna
work
here
anymore,
and
this
is
just
the
beginning.
This
is
not
just
now.
P
This
is
for
all
that
comes
into
the
city,
I'm
free
now,
I
live
here
all
my
life
and
I'm
not
going
nowhere.
So
I'm
letting
you
know
we're
gonna
stand
up
and
make
sure
that
this
enforcement
bill
works
properly
and
that
it
is
fair
across
the
board
and
that
black
and
brown
people
are
included
for
the
first
time.
Thank
you
all
for
standing
up,
thank
y'all
for
pushing
the
envelope
and,
if
anybody
that
don't
want
to
approve
this
going
through.
Thank
you.
You
see
you
at
voting
time.
M
Good
afternoon,
council
president
members
of
the
council,
my
name
is
Matthew
Smith,
president
of
the
National
Action
Network.
Here
in
Philadelphia,
we
support
enforcement
of
this
bill.
We
echo
the
sentiment
of
our
dear
sister,
who
just
addressed
this
council.
We
are
beginning
to
look
at
things
a
whole
lot
different.
M
A
P
Afternoon,
council
president
members
of
council
I
just
want
to
take
a
minute
just
to
read
the
names
of
the
people
that
are
in
support
of
this
bill
and
this
new
initiative
to
support
City
Council
in
a
way
that
we've
never
supported
you
before.
So
it's
26
community
leaders
I
just
want
to
read
the
names
of
the
community
leaders
that
are
in
support
of
you,
who
have
come
together
in
an
unprecedented
way
to
support
you
not
just
today,
but
on
Election
Day
and
we're
gonna
support
those
that
support
us.
Democrat,
Republican,
independent,
green
black
of
blue.
P
Whoever
supports
the
interests
of
our
people.
We're
gonna
support
you
in
an
unprecedented
way:
Paula
people,
Rochelle,
Bulow,
Greg,
Brinkley,
mark
Carell,
Duryea,
Miller,
Murray,
Paterson,
Danilo,
Burgos,
Albert
little
page
Lea,
Taylor
and
time
more
Shantay
love,
Mel,

L
Tracy,
Hardy,
Ravitch
arrow
Danita
base,
Malik
Ozzy,
Mike,
Reid,
Jada,
Arwen,
Bishop,
Marie,
Palmer
and
myself,
Emmanuel
bussy,
just
we've
come
together
and
an
unprecedented
way
again
to
support
council
in
a
way.
Council
have
never
been
supported
before
so
when
unions
come
at
you,
we
got
your
back
when
business
come
at
you.
P
We
got
your
back
as
long
as
you
look
out
for
us.
We
will
make
sure
that
no
one
comes
after
you
without
getting
pushback
from
the
community
and
when
I
say
community
leaders
we
got
over
I
think
we
added
up
three
hundred
and
twenty
years
of
experience
of
fighting
in
elections
and
getting
people
elected
and
fighting
on
the
ground.
So
again,
we
appreciate
what
you've
done
in
terms
of
this
enforcement
bill
to
add
an
enforcement
mechanism
add
another
tool
to
your
tool
chest
in
terms
of
making
sure
people
keep
their
word.
P
If
you
make
an
agreement
with
City
Council,
no
longer
you're,
just
gonna,
be
in
a
break
that
agreement
engine
and
get
a
flyby
pass
by
the
mayor
of
administration.
We
appreciate
Council,
adding
this
level
of
enforcement
to
what
you
do.
We
can't
thank
you
enough
and
again.
This
is
just
step
one
and
again
we
thank
you.
Thank.
Q
Speaking
publicly
I'm
a
65
year
old,
grandmother
and
I'm,
also
a
different
kind
of
Democrat
I.
Want
you
to
understand
what
this
type
of
discrimination
has
meant
to
families
like
mine
and
what
it
means
to
the
future
of
my
children.
I'm
gonna
tell
you
about
my
deceased
husband
for
a
moment,
so
please
be
patient
with
me.
Lawrence
graduated
from
vigilant
Franklin
High
School
in
1980.
Q
He
had
carpentry
skills.
He
was
proud
of
himself
he's
gonna,
take
care
of
his
family
and
the
child.
We
were
expecting.
He
had
a
hard
time
gaining
employment
and
great
experiences
that
he
needed.
But
finally
he
secured
the
interview
with
the
job
that
he
thought
it's
gonna
be.
You
know,
really
happy
and
he
was
going
to
finally
build
a
career
that
he
could
take
his
family.
He
was
interviewed
by
a
45-year
middle-aged
of
his
middle
age
was
then
white
man.
He
brought
him
into
the
shop
he
allowed
Lawrence
to
try.
Q
You
know
showing
what
he
could
to
show
them
his
skills
he
treated
Lawrence
and
introducing
around
everybody
in
the
young
in
the
shop.
You
know
praised
them
because
he
was
good
at
what
he
did.
He
was
young
he's
good
at
what
he
did.
As
an
interview
concluded.
They
went
back
to
his
office.
The
gentleman
you
know
continued
to
praise
Lawrence,
so
happy
you
interviewed
when
it
when
Lauren
stood
up
to
shake
his
hand,
you
know,
because
any
views
over
he's
proud
of
himself.
Q
The
gentleman
did
slap
us
didn't
shake
his
hand,
the
gentleman
the
supervisor
in
the
shop
he
slapped
his
face,
the
18-year
old
man
he
slapped
his
face.
A
scuffle
ensued.
My
husband
ran
home
afraid
for
weeks.
How
was
this
going
to
end
them?
Are
they
gonna
come
lock
me
up?
What
do
we
do
now?
How
does
he
feed
his
family?
This
kind
of
discrimination,
if
you
allow
it
to
continue,
is
nothing
but
a
continuance
slapping
our
thesis,
Larsen
I
have
two
grandsons
23
or
25
aspiring
carpenters.
Q
They
want
to
have
their
own
business
I
plan
on
buying
them
a
truck,
don't
discriminate
against
my
grandchildren.
We
need
jobs
and
equal
opportunities
the
same
way.
Yours
do.
We
will
be
sharing
the
same
community
I
appreciate
you
making
this
very
first
start,
but
to
continue.
This
practice
is
a
continuing
slap
in
our
faces,
and
it's
who
hour
after
lunch
once
again,
I'm
Elizabeth,
DeGraw
55,
your
grandmother
I,
represent
all
grandmothers
and
all
of
our
grandchildren's
in
our
society.
When
I
speak,
they
can't
you
forget
for
this
time.
Thank.

Interesting
thing
and
I
would
like
to
advise
the
citizens
of
Dallas
Texas
that
their
city
is
named
after
Mifflin
Dallas,
who
was
vice
president
in
1841
in
1843
1845,
under
President
Polk.
But
the
most
important
matter
is
that
he
was
also
mayor
of
the
city
of
Philadelphia
from
1828
to
1829.
The
Dallas
fans
ought
to
know
that
and
I
say:
go
Eagles
Thank,
You
council.
D
This
bill
that
has
passed
for
the
first
time
gives
council
the
power
to
enforce
anti-discrimination
laws
that
have
been
long
been
in
Philadelphia
but
sadly,
have
not
been
enforced.
I
would
like
to
also
thank
the
community
groups
because
it
really
been
the
push
behind
this
to
get
it
done.
I
got
a
recognize
different
kind
of
Democrat,
all
26
community
leaders
for
really
taking
this.
You
know
grassroots
effort
and
and
really
bringing
this
in
a
way
that
is
understood
by
by
the
people,
particularly
with
the
opportunity
of
500
million
dollars
for
rebuild
in
an
unprecedented
manner.
D
There
will
be
opportunities
in
our
communities
for
people
who
have
the
skills
and
the
ability,
and
now
each
district
council
person
and
each
member
of
council
can
ensure
that
if
there
is
discrimination
on
the
job
site
or
in
any
other
contract
that
this
body
will
be
able
to
act
where
there
has
not
been
in
the
past,
a
willingness
to
act,
I
really
have
to
praise
and
thank
the
law
department.
I
am
one
of
the
staunch
critics
of
the
law
department
when
I
feel
they're
not
doing
their
job
right.
D
That's
just
my
opinion,
but
I
also
want
to
say
that
the
law
department
also
does
a
fantastic
job,
and
in
this
case
the
law
department
was
really
spot
on
informing
me
things.
I
had
no
idea
about
and
ensuring
that
we
would
have
a
meaningful
bill
that
we've
passed
today
and
finally,
I
want
to
say
that
none
of
this
would
have
been
possible
without
councilman
Wilson,
good
jr..
He
has
been
a
long.
D
You
know
relentless
on
this
issue
of
fairness
and
equity,
and
this
entire
enforcement
bill
is
built
upon
his
introduction
of
a
disparity
study
that
provides
the
basis
for
doing
what
we
can
do
today.
So
council
min
Wilson,
good
jr..
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
work
and
and
I
hope,
you'll
see
it
paying
off
today.
H
You,
mr.
president,
and
let
me
thank
councilman
o
for
that
terrific
segue
into
my
remarks,
I
think
forever
and
I
always
used
the
expression
at
nauseam.
Members
of
this
body
have
spoke
about
talked
about
debated
about
the
importance
of
ensuring
that
we
have
a
government
that
looks
like
the
city
of
Philadelphia.
This
has
included
reducing
barriers
and
contracting
so
that
every
person,
every
business
has
an
opportunity
to
successfully
start
and
grow
businesses.
H
Here,
in
Philadelphia
a
little
over
10
years
ago,
city
council
passed
a
bill
requiring
the
development
of
Economic
Opportunity
plans
for
certain
contracts
and
projects.
The
significance
of
this
bill
provided
what
we
hope
to
be
a
new
pathway
for
meaningful,
more
substantive
and
systemic
protocols
for
opportunities
for
black
and
brown
citizens,
women
and
disabled
businesses
to
participate
in
all
phases
of
projects
and
contracts.
H
He
has
been
exceedingly
consistent
and
unapologetically
narrow
and
that
which
he
cares
about
diversity
is
the
goal
not
only
in
the
workforce,
but
should
be
reflected
on
our
board
of
directors
and
in
our
executive
suites,
when
companies
bring
women
and
people
of
color
to
the
table,
and
this
has
been
researched
and
documented
when
companies
bring
women
and
people
of
color
to
the
table.
Major
decisions
for
major
decisions,
the
conversation
changes
and
the
outcome
is
always
different
and
better
goals
are
vital
to
the
process,
but
they
only
represent
the
beginning.
H
In
addition,
simply
focusing
on
hiring
people
of
color
and
women
is
not
enough.
When
you
take
a
close
look
at
the
definition
of
diversity
and
inclusion,
you
cannot
have
one
without
the
other.
Mr.
Webster
says
that
diversity
is
any
dimension
used
to
differentiate
groups
and
people
from
one
another,
with
respect
to
an
appreciation
for
differences
in
ethnicity,
gender,
age,
national
origin,
disability,
sexual
orientation,
education
and
religion.
H
Inclusion
is
a
state
of
being
valued,
respected
and
supported.
Inclusion
when
successful
is
reflected
in
the
culture
practices
and
relationships
that
support
a
diverse
workforce.
Inclusion
looks
beyond
numbers
just
because
an
organization
meets
their
numbers,
doesn't
necessarily
mean
they
are
and
remain
serious
and
authentic
about
new
hires
or
contractors
by
the
decision-makers.
So,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
I
agree
councilman,
oh
that
councilman
good
and
my
personal
opinion
and
I
am
sure
Sheriff
by
many
has
been
the
architect
of
well
over
sixty
six
bills.
H
I
Thank
You,
mr.
president
and
I
want
to
echo
the
sentiments
of
my
colleague,
Blondell
Reynolds
Brown,
and
thank
councilman
good
and
Councilman
Oh
for
all
of
their
hard
work.
It's
it's.
This
has
really
been
a
considerable
effort
from
so
many
people
and
even
when
we
did
a
presentation
earlier
and
talked
about
the
student
walkout
part
of
my
section
and
reading
was
talking
about
how
inclusion
was
a
part
of
the
conversation
you
know
50
years
ago,
and
here
we
are
still
having
the
conversation
today.
So
clearly,
there's
still
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done.
I
Also,
I
wanted
to
make
sure
everyone
was
aware
that
we're
going
to
continue
our
series
on
community
hearings
regarding
replacing
this
school
Reform
Commission.
We
have
our
next
meeting
scheduled
for
this
coming
Saturday
from
9
to
11
a.m.
at
Oasis
City
Church,
which
is
located
at
52,
48,
North,
5th
Street,
and
so
we
certainly
hope
folks
could
come
and
come
by
last
week,
Councilwoman
Blackwell
and
myself
were
there
and
it
was
just
a
dynamic
conversation
conversation.
I
It
was
really
something
not
to
be
missed
and
we
want
to
encourage
folks
to
come
out
and
get
as
much
information
as
possible
and
be
a
part
of
that
conversation.
So
I
just
really
wanted
to
make
sure
folks
knew
that
it's
going
to
be
this
coming
Saturday
November,
18th,
9
to
11
a.m.
at
Oasis,
City,
Church,
52-48,
North,
5th
Street.
Thank
you.
Thank.
K
I
refuse
to
talk
about
my
good
friend,
Wilson
good
jr.
I
intend
to
talk
more
about
his
daddy
Wilson,
whose
senior
he
has
gone
on,
after
serving
with
distinction
as
our
mayor
to
do
worthwhile
efforts,
but
within
criminal
justice.
One
of
the
things
that
he
has
done
is
the
Ameche
Foundation,
which
deals
with
the
children
of
incarcerated
individuals
and
they
and
look
out
for
their
well-being.
One
of
the
things
that
was
talked
about
in
the
1967
protests
was
the
pipeline
from
school
to
prison
which
existed
then
and
continues
to
exist
now.
K
I
rise
today
to
talk
about
because
of
your
efforts,
I
was
appointed
to
the
juvenile
justice
crime
and
delinquency
Commission
to
try
to
look
at
prevention
efforts.
I
was
sitting
in
a
meeting
and
they
were
talking
about
groundbreaking
legislation
that
was
passed
in
bipartisanship
with
Republicans
to
deal
with
providing
1%
of
all
of
the
proceeds
from
companies
that
do
business
with
the
prison
system
and
Trivial
Pursuit.
K
For
my
friends
in
in
the
press,
the
number
one
purveyor
of
prison
services
in
the
United
States
is
Bob
Barker
from
let's
make
a
deal,
they
provide
all
of
the
toothpastes
in
the
hair
brushes
and
the
TVs
to
inmates
it's
a
multi-billion
dollar
industry,
and
so
when
they
were
talking
about
this
legislation
that
put
a
set
aside
to
take
care
of
social
issues
that
children
that
whoever
incarcerated
parents
might
have
tuitions
social
services.
Things
like
that
I
just
swell
with
pride
that
someone
was
forward-thinking
enough
to
introduce
and
then
pass
I
really
fell
out.
K
My
chair
and
wanted
to
say,
I
know
him.
When
they
told
me
it
was
senator
Vincent,
Hughes
I
just
wanted
to
say
filly
he's
from
our
district
and
I
wanted
to
give
him
a
shout-out
for
that.
We
introduced
today
a
companion
piece
that
will
look
at
our
prison
system
to
look
at
the
prison
industrial
complex
to
say.
Maybe
there's
a
little
that
we
can
do
to
separate
the
chain.
Armand
Wilson
good
senior
talks
about
the
fact
ATT
visited
prisons
where
there
was
a
grandfather,
a
son
and
a
grandson
in
the
same
institution.
K
J
You,
mr.
president,
I
would
be
brief,
although
I'll
take
as
long
as
it
takes
I
would
be
remiss
not
to
echo
the
sentiments
and
really
acknowledge
councilman
Wilson
good,
who
taught
all
of
us
may
knows
of
us
who
were
freshman's.
The
the
importance
of
inscribing
and
legislating
important
bills
and
and
I
want
to
thank
councilman
Oh
for
for
championing
this
discussion,
and
you
know
the
struggle
continues
as
as
we've
seen
today.
I
want
to
thank
Councilwoman
bass
for
the
these.
All
of
these
community
meetings.
J
I
think
it's
hugely
important,
particularly
as
District
Council
folks,
that
that
we
give
everyone
an
opportunity
to
kind
of
weigh
in
I,
know
councilman
blackwell
in
the
Education
Committee.
This
conversation
has
been
long
a
long
time
coming
and
so
hopefully,
I'll
be
able
to
stop
by
and
join
her
as
it's
close
to
our
counts.
Our
district
borders
I
want
to
remind
folks
that
in
room
five,
seventy
six
in
about
ten
minutes,
we
we
have
an
inclusion,
inclusionary
zoning
briefing
for
legislative
policy
staff
and
my
council
colleagues
I
want
to
personally.
Thank
you.
