We believe, as the life-work of Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner showed us, we must craft spaces to gather study, reflect, write, make, and organize toward freedom.

Friends of the Tanner House is proud to be a launch partner with the free, virtual, open-to-the-public Africana Studies Network & Lecture Series. This project is a community-driven initiative. While many educators and students may participate, this program is not affiliated with nor officially sponsored by the School District of Philadelphia.
