On May 13, 1985, Philadelphia city officials authorized the dropping of a bomb on a house in a residential neighborhood, killing 11 people of the MOVE organization—including five children—destroying 61 homes and rendering nearly 250 residents homeless. The years leading up to this tragedy involved multiple instances of police brutality, one of which resulted in the more than 40‐year incarceration of nine MOVE members (commonly known as the MOVE 9). In this first‐person account, we review literature on reconciliation and apologies, explore the value of reconciliation in community psychology, and reflect on our involvement as a reconciliation strategist and a community psychologist in initiating, developing and facilitating a reconciliation process. A model of iterative reconciliation as a creative multilevel and multipurpose tool relevant for community psychology is proposed. The reconciliation process began in September 2018 between key players involved with the MOVE organization and Philadelphia officials and community members and family and involved multiple community gatherings and conversations with many stakeholders. Ultimately, through the extensive reconciliation process, the authors facilitated the issuing of an apology on May 13, 2020 by the Council of the City of Philadelphia.

Re-Member MOVE：和解的剖析

1985 年 5 月 13 日，费城市政府官员授权向居民区的一所房屋投掷炸弹，造成 MOVE 组织的 11 人死亡——其中包括 5 名儿童——摧毁了 61 所房屋，并使近 250 名居民无家可归。导致这场悲剧的几年涉及多起警察暴行，其中一次导致 9 名 MOVE 成员（通常称为 MOVE 9）被监禁 40 多年。在这个第一人称叙述中，我们回顾了关于和解和道歉的文献，探讨和解在社区心理学中的价值，并反思我们作为和解战略家和社区心理学家参与发起、发展和促进和解过程的过程。迭代协调模型作为与社区心理学相关的创造性多层次和多用途工具。和解进程于 2018 年 9 月在 MOVE 组织的主要参与者与费城官员以及社区成员和家人之间开始，并涉及多次社区聚会和与许多利益相关者的对话。最终，通过广泛的和解过程，提交人促成了费城市议会于 2020 年 5 月 13 日发表道歉声明。
