We have to acknowledge that a big part of this idea, that ‘Malcom isn’t viable,’ is based on nothing. People believing a false version of reality, that everybody was racist and homophobic. And, you know, Pennsylvania is so much better than that. That is not what Pennsylvania is, not in our small rural communities, not in our major cities. People are ready to have bold leadership more than the cynics would have you believe.

Few things bring us together faster than similar interests. Even more so, fewer things can bring so many different types of people together more effectively than shared fandom. No matter who you are, where you live or what you worship, a bond among fans often bridges all differences.

As time has gone by, we find ourselves fixated on aspects of Black film that have transcended the work and penetrated the culture. Lately, we’ve been referring to those images as a “Denzel Tear.”

"I was so astounded at the response I got from my fans; the impact that “Mulan” had on so many. Wow, it was tremendous. Agent May or any of these other roles that I’ve done, whether it was in “ER” or “Joy Luck”; it wasn’t even like science fiction fantasy stuff. It was just the body of work and, you know, some of them would cry, like I was like one of the Beatles or something, you know? I was just really moved by it. And so I love going to the conventions and meeting everyone. It’s such a happy moment and that’s why I keep doing it."

It seems like everyone is gardening these days. But if you live in the city, you could be short on space. Maybe you have a strip of land, a community garden, a pot on a stoop, or just a windowsill. Whatever your space, you can grow something if you grow something in a container.

Philadelphia Weekly’s Story
Philadelphia, perhaps America’s most historic city, is experiencing a period of seismic growth and change. As neighborhoods evolve and the constellation of human interaction grows, fewer voices than ever before are recording and reflecting these monumental shifts amongst the city and its denizens.
City dwellers who don’t simply identify as Philadelphians, but those who feel as much a part of the city as the Magic Gardens or Reading Terminal Market, look to Philadelphia’s news sources to discover what’s happening in their city. Yet they’re either met with thin exposure of the things that matter most or vacuous clickbait. Uninformed about the transformative issues defining their communities, these residents struggle to form connections to their neighborhoods and to understand the part they play in enriching, improving, and supporting their city — their identity.
Philadelphia Weekly is telling city dwellers what they need to hear in the way that they both need and want to hear it — entrenching themselves in the neighborhoods that others ignore, and taking the time that others won’t invest to tell vital stories. With meaningful roots in Philadelphia spanning more than four decades, Philly Weekly has long had their fingers on the pulse of the city, providing invaluable context and meaning to the news while helping long-standing traditions and communities thrive alongside emerging cultures and people.
Inquisitive, unafraid, and honest, Philly Weekly doesn’t just point out problems; they offer context and ideas for meaningful improvement. Whether reviewing a local punk band at Underground Arts or covering the ignored side of a lively protest, every Philly Weekly story is crafted with a deep understanding of and affinity for the City of Brotherly Love — and a profound desire to make it a safer, fairer, better place in which to thrive.
