During Black History Month, notable people of either sex, or either political party should be remembered. Consider Ethel Allen, born in Philadelphia, May 8, 1929, and educated here and went to college at West Virginia State University, majoring in biology and chemistry, with a minor in mathematics. She returned home and graduated at  Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in 1963.

Ethel D. Allen, D.O. became a self-described "ghetto practitioner," in some of the poorest neighborhoods. She saw the crime there, and sometimes was accosted herself.

The crime and poverty inspired her to run for political office, and she was a member of Philadelphia City Council from the 5th District from January 3, 1972 to January 5, 1976, having defeated Thomas McIntosh, the incumbent, in 1971. She was succeeded by Cecil B. Moore when she ran and won election as a member of Philadelphia City Council from the At-Large District from January 5, 1976 to January 16, 1979. Doctor Allen was the very first woman elected to Council, and the very first African American.
