A contingent from the Paul Robeson House & Museum in Philadelphia went to Harrisburg to witness the passing of a resolution designating April 9, 2024, as Paul Robeson Day in Pennsylvania. The resolution stalled in the House but passed the next day.

Our own Zumbi Soweto, artist-in-residence at Paul Robeson House & Museum in Philadelphia, was among the artists who created the nearly 11-foot kinara that stands outside Philadelphia City Hall. It was Philadelphia’s first official kinara.
