There were no women, Native Americans, or African Americans present at the Philadelphia Convention because they were not considered citizens or participants in the political process at that time. The convention was attended by white, male delegates who represented the interests of their respective states and were primarily focused on establishing a new system of government for the United States.
There are no African Americans that were founders of the United States. Any African American who was at the constitutional convention was a slave.
As of the 2020 census, there were approximately 1.2 million people in Philadelphia, and about 42% of them identified as Black or African American. This would estimate that there are around 504,000 African Americans living in Philadelphia.

The issue of enslaved Africans (they were not yet African-Americans, according to Chief Justice Taney, in Dred Scott)concerned the delegates at the Philadelphia Convention on only two counts. One, as potential population to be counted in determining representation from each state, and two, as the fuel for an American economy that depended on Southern productivity. That's all.
African American Museum in Philadelphia was created in 1976.
Following the American Civil War many Americans of African descent migrated from the south northward towards large cities such as Philadelphia and Chicago.
