If I were granted the opportunity to meet any founder, I would like to meet Osceola Macarthy Adams. I am interested in what it was like to be one of the first African-American women to perform on Broadway. I am interested in knowing the many obstacles she had to overcome and ways she dealt with everything that was going on in her day. I also would ask her what aspect of Delta she feels needs the most work or what is more distant from the ideas she and the other founders had when they founded the organization.
