    My other mother of a different color

    This was my other mother i ran to when i was in big trouble. This beautiful woman always looked after me and my brother. Vicki was the 1st black woman black belt in judo in 1967. This article made Ebony magazine just one of her accomplishments.

    You know i been called a racist by people that do not have a clue who they are talking to. Judo is a sport that knows no color or religious background. My judo mother use to teach if you hate you are already defeated.
