Felipa Obit: Bernice Johnson Reagon (1942-2024) (7) RE: Obit: Bernice Johnson Reagon (1942-2024) 06 Aug 24

re my query about the name of Bernice Johnson Reagon and Cordell Reagon's daughter Toshi, it does seem probable that she was named for Toshi Seeger. Ken Miles wrote on a Facebook discussion, "Pete and Toshi helped the Freedom Singers a lot. Bernice Johnson Reagon spent time at the Seeger home in Beacon and eventually named her daughter Toshi. And Toshi Seeger booked the Freedom Singers on a tour of colleges throughout the U.S."
