          Grace Lee Boggs, the child of Chinese immigrants who spent her life actively supporting causes ranging from civil rights and labor to the Black Power and feminist movements, has died.

          She was 100.

          Boggs died Monday morning, a spokeswoman for the Detroit-based Boggs Center confirmed, saying she went "peacefully in her sleep at her home on Field Street in Detroit."

          “Grace died as she lived surrounded by books, politics, people and ideas,” Alice Jennings and Shea Howell, two of Boggs' trustees, said in a statement.

          President Barack Obama -- who himself was a community organizer in Chicago in the ‘80s -- said he and the first lady were “saddened” to hear of Boggs’ death.

          "Grace dedicated her life to serving and advocating for the rights of others -- from her community activism in Detroit, to her leadership in the civil rights movement, to her ideas that challenged us all to lead meaningful lives,” Obama said in a statement.
