dear henrietta and all: i am so sad and always angry....she was indeed a pi oneer and one of our early supporters when we began to publish...zeely firs t in 1967..... she was a strong woman who would recognize no ceilings...glass or otherwis e.... and she had that regal quality: cool and thoughtful and organized with a wo rld view for african americans...and for all humane humans....
