Get ready to feel the year all over again. I'm in awe of all our journalists, but especially the ones who could only do their work by taking risks.
2020 Year in Pictures: This year has been a test for many of us. During tough times, Philly embodied joy, anger, hope, and resilience. Our photojournalists have worked tirelessly to capture the moments that defined this year.

Nervous energy making me think of all the words that describe nervous energy. I’ll start. In Yiddish, it’s shpilkes. Your turn.

I can only assume that, because @MaxMMarin tweeted it, a captain came by and said “are you Samantha?” and cut my ties off. So, Commissioner Outlaw’s order to stop arresting reporters covering stories is half working.
The gun epidemic rages on in Philadelphia. Today, #fillthefeeds with your stories.
It’s almost that time. Since we can’t meet at the Art Museum this year to #FillTheSteps Against Gun Violence, on Friday, June 5, let’s #FillTheFeeds –our social media feeds – Against Gun Violence. inquirer.com/opinion/philade…

It’s tough to teach little ones about anti-Blackness and police brutality because we think of children as innocent. We don’t want to “teach racism.” But if your kids have light-skin, or any kind of privilege, and they don’t realize that, you’re already teaching them racism.

Great and valiant work by @PhillyInquirer photographers who covered today's protests in Philadelphia. One was sprayed with a chemical and another had his camera stolen. Real journalists, real results. Journalism matters.inquirer.com/photo/philadelp…

An unhappy story with a happy ending. The emotion in everybody's face in this video is priceless.
When I wrote about the child who lost his foot on a SEPTA escalator in 1996, I didn't expect this follow-up. I hope you'll read the column, if for no other reason than to see the video magic @lschneiderman_ worked on my amateur Zoom recording skills. inquirer.com/life/curtis-ghe…
I learned tonight what is not included in this column, which is how much yarn Helen has purchased. We’re in for the long haul. inquirer.com/opinion/coronav… via @phillyinquirer
Downed entire bag of boom chicka pop, entire bottle of Manishewitz, while reading newspaper. If you could get this all in one logo, it would be my brand.
This is not about coronavirus! And it will make you feel good, not bad!inquirer.com/life/reed-bmore…
Just daydreaming about what it would look like if people voted for who they loved (not necessarily who they thought would win) and campaign money went to schools.
Don’t look now. @NotesFromHeL shows her anxious side (not that I also hand sanitized my phone just now)... inquirer.com/opinion/coronav…
It’s complicated! And @amysrosenberg is able to pack in all the perspective about these two old Jews. inquirer.com/politics/bernie…

It's hard to overstate how stunned I am, or how grateful I am to receive this award. To all the people who trusted me with their stories, thank you.
