Convinced, this is one of the most interesting questions I've seen on this forum.
I tend to be proud of the fact that my home state and neighborhood high school produced one of your founders Anna E. Brown. And I admired her interest in African American history; as that was a very important part of my upbringing.
I also appreciate the work of both Lucy D. Slowe and Marie Woolfolk Taylor with young women. Especially Mrs. Taylor's work with the 'delinquent' girls of Atlanta. There are several reasons why this piece of history is admirable to me, personally, but I won't go into details in this post. And both women went on to accomplish so much in their respective areas; they are truly inspirational to me.
Again, thanks for the interesting and thought-provoking topic....and a safe New Year's to all!
Peace and bless
