Talk:Angelina Weld Grimké

Image source
The photo shown of Angelina Weld Grimké is identical to the one that was given on the Wikipedia page for Mary Booze. Neither linked to or cited a source giving the actual provenance of the image. The Grimké image page does link to an external site that currently has a picture of a woman who looks somewhat similar. However, when I tried to include that link here, I received an error message saying that the site (afropoets in the dotnet domain) is registered on Wikipedia's blacklist. Since April 2016 the talk page for Mary Booze had had a note pointing out the photo duplication, but the picture is still there. In the meantime, the apparently incorrect image seems to have been copied by other sites, such as https://grandoldpartisan.typepad.com/blog/2019/09/mary-booze.html To stop further spread of misinformation, I edited the Mary Booze page today, removing the link to the photograph.

Percentage is not high enough
"although she was 75% white — a white mother and a half-white father — she was still a "woman of color"."

But the half-white father had a white father and a mixed race mother (as explained in the body of the article), so a more likely percentage is 87.5%.

The letter in question was not sent to Mary P. Burill
Kerri Greenidge's new family biography on the Grimké's informs that the young lady that the letter was sent to was not "Mamie P. Burill," but to Mary "Mamie" Edith Karn, Angelina's classmate at Carleton College's preparatory department in Northfield, Minnesota.
