Keynotes believes that Black lives matter, now and always, and stands in solidarity with Penn’s Black community.

The disregard for the value of Black lives and dismissal of Black voices is a deep-rooted problem that pervades everyday American life as well as spaces of higher-education. To that end, Keynotes is committed to:
  • Combating blatant and systemic racism and all other forms of intolerance within the group and outside of the group in members’ personal, academic, and professional lives.
  • Giving back to the West Philadelphia community and Black Philly residents when we have the means to do so. 
  • Standing in support of the Black community at Penn and UMOJA’s demands of the Penn administration.
  • Making an inclusive and safe environment for rehearsals, performances, and all other Keynotes functions.
