She graduated from Harvard University and was a public school teacher for 35 years prior to her retirement in 2008.Ben, speaking with The Hollywood Reporter in 2012 about his mother, said: 'My mother taught public school, went to Harvard and then got her master’s there and taught fifth and sixth grade in a public school.'Christine developed a keen sense of social consciousness early in life, as 'she made the most of an elite education while remaining skeptical of the tightly cloistered world it represented' while attending the school Nightingale-Bamford, according to her obit.In one instance, a teacher yelled at her for condemning Jim Crow since she hadn't spoken to the 'other side,' according to her obit.She subsequently called a Woolworth's store to inquire if they had turned down business from Black people.
