“My great-grandmother was born into slavery in 1846 and taught me some of most enduring lessons.” Betty Reid Soskin's great-grandmother Leontine Braud Allen became a midwife and lived to be 102.  Betty is now 98 and tells us about Leontine’s tremendous influence on her life, inspiring her to become a helper to others during the civil rights movement, in society in general and even now in her role as a ranger with the National Park Service.  Youtube link to copy and save to your YoutubeVR playlist: https://youtu.be/mwcLe2rZHvI
