Rut -- Wow, your mother sounds like a fantastic person, and I wish I could know her, I wish my daughter (who is black) could know her!
Rocky road is right to say, "Choose a mentor who will make you better." The only thing to add, is that probably the person who can make you better, is someone who can answer your questions. If one person can't do it all, such as a woman who doesn't have time to take on another mentee, or a man who doesn't really understand my issues as a woman, then I may need more than one. Like Rut says, a circle of people to talk to about different things is probabaly the best.
