The District-4 Human Dignity Poetry Prize will be awarded to a resident within the district who creates an exceptional poem on the meaning of human dignity. As a component of our Dignity Agenda, the Poetry Prize will highlight perspectives of “dignity,” identity, and community through our neighbors. The deadline for submission is August 7th. Philadelphia Stories will facilitate the competition.

Postponed 1964 Civil Rights Act 60th Year Anniversary Commemoration
Postponed 1964 Civil Rights Act 60th Year Anniversary Commemoration
Join Senator Hughes and me for our event commemorating the Civil Rights Act of 1964. That legislation ended 100 years of legal segregation that kept Africans as second-class citizens and out of public libraries, out of many jobs, out of many restaurants, out of many hotels, out of most of higher education. We will be joined by a panel of experts to discuss the impact of the Civil Rights Act in our lives today.
