Why do you think Philadelphia was one of the most popular cities amongst free African Americans? Which positive aspect of the city would have been most important to you if you had been living during this time as a freed African American?

Philadelphia had a more tolerant culture since it was founded by English Quakers, and Quakers were famous for preaching tolerance and promoting peaceful convivence among different groups of people.
