Yes! Fellow South Carolinian. I am so proud of the works of this woman. Without her pioneering works and countless others, I probably wouldnt be where I am today without her!

My grandmother was from Union SC. I have never been there because of racial violence when I was a girl so its fabulous to learn a little more about her. Im a griot of Black History for my generation.
