Today’s Philly 101 video features Emily Cooper Moore, Executive Administrator at the Philadelphia History Museum, located just around the corner from Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell, which has been an exciting gateway into Philadelphia History for nearly 70 years. See hundreds of priceless objects on display, include the wampum belt that the Lenni Lenape Indians gave to William Penn in 1682. Hear from history buff Emily and learn what she wishes more people knew about in Philadelphia that ties into our city’s history.
