Chronicling Resistance
Share
A collaborative initiative of the Philadelphia Area Consortium of Special Collections Libraries (PACSCL) and the Free Library, Chronicling Resistance amplifies current and historical stories of resistance by marginalized people in Philadelphia archives.
01/26/2023
When community members come together to help meet one another’s needs, everyday acts like cooking a meal or sharing household supplies can make neighborhoods stronger and more interconnected. They are also less dependent upon systems that have historically exploited them.
Chronicling Resistance: The Exhibition highlights some ways mutual aid has played a major role in Philadelphia’s resistance history and explores this practice of care further in, “Mutual Aid: How Neighbors Are Helping Neighbors.”
This free program will include a moderated panel discussion about what our communities are doing to support and grow the legacy of mutual aid in our city. The panel discussion will occur in-person at Blackwell Regional Library and will be livestreamed at Logan and Fishtown. Free food platters will be available at all three locations. Food is first come, first served.
Thursday, January 26, 2023 3:00 p.m.

Lucien R. Blackwell Regional Library: 125 S 52nd St.
