    There's an old clip showing this lady addressing female Motown artistes & they're hanging on her every word! Her wonderful influence showed through in the way those artistes subsequently conducted themselves - she did a great job (and yet another stroke of genius from Berry Gordy in hiring her).

      These people have no home training/class, no pun intended. At the risk of sounding homophobic, this is a perfect example of why I don't invite many of my White associates to my home. I don't have time to train anyone in the social graces. How dare she address that elder by her first name. Unless given specify permission to do so, we know that to address an elder by his/her first name is considered to be the epitome of disrespect. Incidentally, the same holds true in many so-called "minority" communities. Blessings

    She was the real deal. I thank God for her because even in her last years she still carried that same level of high class and grace that many of today's young females deem unnecessary...Ms. Powell used to tell me "These young girls think being a lady is old-fashioned but young man, ladies never go out of style". She changed the way I looked at women. She changed my expecations of women. She even had the capacity to flirt (at her age!) and never make it seem creepy or Cougarish...she just did it to show me how a LADY flirts. She was just ALL lady. When I look back now I realize that a lot of my masculine confidence comes from the way Ms. Powell treated me. She knew how to make a boy feel like a man without it ever being a carnal thing. She saw a young directionless man with a little talent and she poured into me. I was in my early 20s when I met Ms. Powell in person. She was headed toward 90 and she had already served generations! That she chose to serve me and allowed me to serve her every chance I got will always mean the world to me. I really miss her. There isn't a time that I get up to sing at Baker's or Bert's and don't think of her being in her usual seat holding court (she was the Queen of Detroit Entertainment hands down) mentally taking notes to tell me ALL the things I did wrong, and two or three things I did right (and she was always right. If you worked what she told you, it WORKED)...LOL. There was a mother-wit about her that you just don't see in women nowadays.

    These interviewers always wanna know if white were allowed in our schools but yet never asked white folks if or why blacks were allowed. Interesting NOT in a good way. But also Mrs Maxine should’ve trained herself NOT to say “And Uhh”, so often😂 however she’s a great interview.
