              <text>Carolyn Lawrence received this photograph from Mr. Jake Brickson, a professional photographer whose wife is close with Ms. Lawrence. It was taken in either the late 1960s or early 1970s, and depicts members of Beloit’s Women’s Culture Club. Made up of women of Beloit’s black community, this social group gave out local scholarships and was heavily active in the Civil Rights Movement and the NAACP; their motto was “Lifting as We Climb.” The women depicted in this particular photograph are as follows: (front row, left to right) Mary B. May, Marilyn Walker, Velma Herd, Marcia Drake Morgan, Ocie Peterson, Octavia Buggs (back row, left to right) Fannie Baskin, Evelyn Johnson O’Kelly, Rocky Wilson, Delaware Simmons, Thelma Bannister, Viola Motton, Nannie Lee Farr, Daisy H. Smithson, Elsie Sample, Frankie Brown, Annie Inez Harris--Ms. Lawrence’s former mother-in-law--Mae Frances White.</text>
