( ) I remind her of the time a few years ago when someone in her home told a derogatory joke and she doled out what I call a skinning—the sharp words of correction she will give anyone who demeans her or others while in her presence. ( ) At Maya's home in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, we greet each other with hugs, grins and our favorite exchange: "Hey, you girl!". ( ) Yet all of Maya's friends know that beneath such chastisement is a layer of kindness and generosity you don’t often find in people in these times. ( ) At 72 Maya exudes confidence and extraordinary intelligence—and her wit is as acute as her wisdom.
Considering notions of paragraph and cohesion, mark the correct order.
