She made sure, No. 1, that we didn't discriminate. And she always said to me, 'You have to be successful. There are a lot of people who have paid their dues to put you in a situation to be successful. A lot of people got beaten, a lot of people got lynched . . . and if you get the chance to be successful, you can't squander it.' She always reminded me of that every day.
