Letter to the Editor: A Practical Path Forward

  • Recently, Mark D. Schwartz wrote that the city had known for months that President's House site panels about slavery were removed, despite legal restrictions.
  • The 1950 cooperative agreement with the U.S. Department of the Interior says the City of Philadelphia and the federal government cannot change Independence National Historical Park without mutual consent.
  • Critics argue the mayor repeatedly failed to act when Cherelle L. Parker, Philadelphia mayor, presided over the strike last year and the recent snowstorm that strained city services.
  • By not pursuing court action, Cherelle L. Parker now faces an uphill battle, critics say the founders would have acted against such unilateral alterations.
  • City leaders could have declared the Department of the Interior in breach and threatened to restrict city parcels, but critics say prioritizing the 250th anniversary may sway voters in the 2027 mayoral election next year.
