  • Beginning stub of article on notable civil rights activist, based on her NYT obituary. It's disgraceful that we have to wait for the obituary to realize lack of inclusion of notable women and people of color. --Lquilter (talk) 23:26, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Some additional links / references to potentially mine / include:
    • "Mrs. Briers learned many of her teaching techniques from a college history professor at Alabama State University. "Ms. Thelma Glass was the most innovative teacher I ever had. History is not the most exciting class, but she would make us use practical things to bring the past to life. We would role play - conducting tours of times and places. It was more than just reciting facts. We used all of our senses. I have tried to pattern my style of teaching after hers." -- discussion with Montgomery Public Schools teacher Mary Brier
