Birthday Greetings Each One Teach One Sister John
🎂Alma Vessells John, born September 22, 1891, was the quintessential community mother who dedicated her life to serving her people, most of whom, she said, “Are God-fearing, hardworking and upstanding citizens. And there isn’t anything wrong with the other five percent that more love, more understanding and more opportunity wouldn’t help.” Sister John, as she insisted on being called, helped people. Her career included working as a nurse, a writer, radio and TV personality, and a civil rights activist. She wrote and produced radio series for WWRL, and hosted TV shows for WPIX in New York.
