    Slavery commiseration planned at Philly’s President’s House site

    The Avenging the Ancestors Coalition plans its annual Slavery Commiseration at the President’s House site on Independence Mall, commemorating the 1619 anniversary of documented enslaved Africans arriving in America. The event and the coalition are highlighted amid ongoing controversy concerning attempts by the Trump administration to change historical exhibits. These changes include the removal of placards detailing George Washington's ties to slavery from the exhibit.
