This who collymore more was on about then on twitter, somehow no doubt he's turned this news into racism on his twitter feed

Can't say I know much about her until reading the first bit of Wiki, but anyone who can write 7 autobiographies must have had a busy life.

Just read about this...she was an amazing woman.

Truly inspirational whenever I've had the pleasure of seeing her speak.

This is a clip from a show called Iconoclasts...basically they take two people from different walks of life and sit them down and they have a conversation...this was my favorite episode (it's four parts...about 40 odd minutes)

Part 1:

A bit disappointed this thread didn't take off a bit more...I guess her 'fame' was limited...she was the type that inspired world leaders

Not her best work...but still inspirational. Clinton's 'OMG' at the end made me laugh a bit.
