I had the same rabbi as Ruth Bader (Ginsburg.) He had a long career. And was involved in education and civil rights. These things stick. For better or worse.

Civic and moral duty seems to be a family tradition. Have you thought of writing your mother's story? Maybe for a local historical society? Or the National Museum of African American History? Maybe you already have done? In these days when religion is put to the worst uses, it is good to be reminded of stories like your mother's.
ThankYou.

My mom also marched (the only white person in the group) to integrate the Oklahoma City schools. She considered it her moral duty.
