The event, organized by Asian Americans United and the Asian Pacific Islander Political Alliance, is slated to begin at 1 p.m. near City Hall and include a march through Chinatown.
'Organized by Asian Americans United and the Asian Pacific Islander Political Alliance, the event is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m., starting at City Hall before proceeding east on Market Street. Participants will then head north on 11th Street to Race Street, then back south on 10th Street. The march is expected to end at the Chinatown gate near Arch Street, organizers said.
“We’ll rally with voices from diverse Philly neighborhoods then march into Chinatown with the power of the people,” Asian Americans United wrote in a social media post announcing the march. The march will come just days after Philly lawmakers returned to City Council on Thursday for the first meeting of the fall session. Council is expected to consider as many as a dozen pieces of legislation related to the project, The Inquirer has reported. The arena’s construction requires legislation to be passed before demolition and construction could begin. Apache RunnersRev.
