Philadelphia has a long history as the site of #RevolutionaryActions. Tune into this episode of In the Pursuit… to hear how that tradition continues today, and ways we can all be a part of leading transformational change.

Episode 4 brings Councilperson Kendra Brooks and Jasmine Sessoms together for a sit-down with Denise Clay, as they share their journeys to breaking through that glass ceiling and how important it is to empower our young leaders with a platform to pursue their civic passion, find their voice and make change.

As we continue our journey to 2026 when we mark the 250th anniversary of American independence, what does it mean to you to take a #RevolutionaryAction? What #RevolutionaryActions should we take together to build a city and country that fully — and finally — lives up to the promises of our founding?

Hear how Councilperson Brooks and Ms. Sessoms answer those questions. Then tell us what you think.
