United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, landed in Philadelphia yesterday for a city visit focusing on foreign policy and community engagement. As part of President Biden's cabinet, Thomas-Greenfield is set to highlight the Biden-Harris administration's commitment to enhancing safety, security, and prosperity for Americans.

On her busy agenda is a scheduled meeting with local civic leaders from Philadelphia's robust African Diaspora community, where the ambassador will underscore the indelible mark they leave on the city's economy and cultural landscape. The aim is to recognize, rightfully so, the spirit of entrepreneurship that thrives within this community, as outlined in a statement from the U.S. Mission to the United Nations.

Thomas-Greenfield's engagement doesn't stop there. She will also pay a visit to William W. Bodine High School for International Affairs, a magnet school where she plans to inspire youths contemplating a future in diplomatic circles. The city's future global ambassadors will have a unique chance to directly engage with one of the nation's key diplomatic figures.

Lastly, the ambassador's original schedule includes participating in a fireside chat hosted by the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia. Here, the conversation will turn global, centered on the ongoing efforts by the U.S. Mission to the United Nations to foster peace and democracy around the world. These efforts, the ambassador will argue, directly correlate to securing the well-being and prosperity of Americans, both overseas and back home. Clearly, this is a message Thomas-Greenfield intends to deeply resonate across all walks of life in the City of Brotherly Love.
