@drivephillymedia: Before University City became a center for education and innovation, thousands of Black Philadelphians called Black Bottom home. For decades, former residents and their descendants have worked to preserve the memory of a community that was nearly erased from the map. In October 2026, Philadelphia officially recognized Black Bottom’s historic name. Can a city truly move forward without remembering what it replaced? #philadelphia #philly #BlackHistory #westphilly #phillyhistory
