Summary
Commends: (1) the Philadelphia Coalition's commitment to active integration and inclusion of all races, genders, and ethnicities in the face of a crime that arose from intolerance and exclusion (the 1964 murder of three civil rights workers by Edgar Ray Killen and other Ku Klux Klansmen); (2) the Coalition for proving that it is never too late for justice to be served; and (3) the commitment and determination of Coalition members to come together for the common aims of justice, dialogue, and progress in the face of adversity.
