A co-volunteer helped me locate the exact scene of Augustus Kollner’s 1877 painting titled "At Mt. Moriah Cemetery, Copp's Creek, Phila.".
Incredible to think these might be the very same trees 148 years later. 🌳

Welcome back from #CobbsCreek
I’m meeting my constituents where they are! It was wonderful speaking with my #wisestneighbors in #CobbsCreek! We discussed issues impacting neighbors of all ages including our state budget & applying for your property tax or rent rebate. Thank you to Monica Allison for organizing this meeting!
Never forget the MOVE bombing in Philly. Our government is not beyond murdering its own citizens. It happened in 1985. It could happen again. #CobbsCreek
#CobbsCreek neighbors, are you concerned about the speeding and reckless diriving in our neighborhood?
Join Vision Zero Philadelphia this Saturday at the Christy Rec Center from noon to 2 p.m. for a pop-up safety fair. For more info visit VisionZeroPHL.com

Today marks 40 years since the Philadelphia police dropped a bomb on a home in Cobbs Creek, targeting the black liberation group “Move” in 1985. 11 people died, 5 of them were children.
