While her home life shaped heroratorical gift, the Black Baptist church provided the stage for her oratorical gift to be nurtured. Taking notice of the young girl’s oratorical gift, when she spoke on youth day at the Historical St. Paul’s Baptist church in NorthPhiladelphia, was Dr. William Cousins, an optometrist, civic leader and member of the civic group, Philadelphia Frontiers.
