Frank Rizzo statue removed from outside the Municipal Services Building in the middle of the night

“The statue is a deplorable monument to racism, bigotry, and police brutality for members of the Black community, the LGBTQ community, and many others. The treatment of these communities under Mr. Rizzo’s leadership was among the worst periods in Philadelphia’s history,” Kenney said.

The statue of former Philadelphia Mayor Rizzo was removed Wednesday, June 3, 2020.
