Pathways to Reform, Transformation, and Reconciliation

Building a more equitable city for all Philadelphians.

About

Racism in America and Philadelphia is both systemic and institutionalized, with far-reaching effects on political engagement, economic opportunities, health outcomes, and overall life chances for Black and Brown communities. These communities have experienced racial inequalities over generations, which have contributed to structural violence and pervasive poverty in the city.

Across the country, the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis sparked weeks of protests and social activism. Acknowledging the suffering, pain, and outrage of these communities, Mayor Jim Kenney pledged to make real changes, and focusing on listening, understanding, and reconciliation, he is committed to building a more equitable city for all Philadelphians.

2020-2021 Year-End Review Pathways to Reform, Transformation, and Reconciliation: The City of Philadelphia released its one-year progress report that provides a comprehensive update on the City’s Pathways to Reform, Transformation, and Reconciliation work, marking one year since the group’s formation.
