Billie HolidayResearch seems to be going really well and it sounds as if your conversations with Boston ministers provided you with valuable leads.
Considering Mother Teresa’s significant contribution and impact as a humanitarian around the world, your decision to explore the notion of her humility makes perfect sense. The power of humility as it relates to faith (religious or other) and as a social value is what I assume you are referring to here. If not, clarifying your thought will be crucial to helping you select and justify your quote selections ultimately, so think about it. For some insight and historical perspective on the subject, I recommend you read Mary M. Keys’ paper A "Monkish Virtue" outside the Monastery: On the Social and Civil Value of Humility.
Set aside the short prayer you found inspiring as you may want to include it in your final poster display.
The same goes for the work you have already done on Billie Holiday. You should consider posting and using the musical analysis you wrote on her songs as part of your poster presentation. Also, would you be able to put Strange Fruit and What a Little Moonlight Can Do on our blog? We could all hear them. In fact, those songs could also be part of our installation when the time comes to exhibit.
Great work Ngozi, congratulations!
