I'm very much amazed with her work. We won't be able to grasp the impact her life has had for years to come.

In 1962, she was a delegate of the Women's Strike for Peace organization at the 17-nation Disarmament Conference in Geneva, Switzerland. Two years before her husband even won the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1964. Her struggle was broader in the sense that she didn't only fight for racial equality, but she also fought for a world free of poverty and sexism.
