RIP Grace Lee Boggs - centenarian activist
"Lee was born in Providence, Rhode Island above her father's restaurant on June 27, 1915. She is the daughter of Chin Lee, a restaurant owner originally from Toishan in China born in 1870.[4] Her Chinese given name is Yuk Ping (玉平), meaning "Jade Peace." Her mother, Yin Lan Lee, her father's second wife, acted as an early feminist role model. She grew up in Jackson Heights, Queens, New York."
