On the eve of MLK Day, and days before Black History month, join us to learn how we can drive economic impact in the Black community by leveraging our vote.
History reveals that political power precedes economic power. Meet the candidates running for Mayor of Philadelphia to hear their positions on topics related to the economic advancement of Philadelphia’s Black community. Moderators will help guide the conversation to promote the vision, the voice and the value of Black talent and Black businesses in the region.
