Raymond Pace Alexander was born in Philadelphia to former enslaved people, but graduated with honors from Harvard Law School and became the go-to civil rights lawyer in Philadelphia.  In 1959, he became the first black judge to sit on the Court of Common Pleas.  His wife Sadie Tanner Mossell was the first Black women to earn an economics degree in the US, but then also became a lawyer.  Together they spent their lives battling racism in Philadelphia.  Their stories are truly inspiring.
