Claudette was radicalized by a schoolteacher named Miss Geraldine Nesbitt. She had an M.A. in education from Columbia. She was a hard teacher of English and used literature to teach about light. She taught the Constitution and they would read the Bible from a literary point of view. Nesbitt brought her own books from home.
