wrong death date and cite in article.

[edit]

NYT and others are reporting she died Nov 2, 2023. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/02/fashion/helen-williams-dead.html P37307 (talk) 01:14, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The NYT article says "Helen Williams, often described as the first Black supermodel, who paved the way for models like Naomi Sims, Pat Cleveland and others who broke barriers in mainstream fashion, died at 87 on July 26 at a care center in Moorestown, N.J., near her home in East Riverton. Her death, which was not widely reported at the time, was confirmed by her cousin Osa Meekins, who said the cause was Alzheimer’s disease." so what you're saying is just not true. --Jkaharper (talk) 04:05, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
