great women we/ve lost

We've had several prominent African American women pass recently. Dorothy Height and Lena Horne - two women who dedicated their lives in very different ways to the fight for equality in America. One stood tall with presidents, one stood tall on the stage and screen and both have left a legacy of integrity, authenticity, and sophistication. Ms Height had her hats, Ms Horne had her voice and beauty - we are richer as a nation for them both. May they rest in peace with the knowledge that they will be remembered as fighting the good fight and making a difference in the lives of so many.
