Katherine Johnson, who passed at the age of 101 years old, this past February?
It is because of Katherine Johnson and other members (Afro-American women) of their cadre's exceptional and superior mathematical calculations, that made it possible for male astronauts to orbit earth and land on the moon, 51 years ago.
I wish American Culture would evolve and liberate itself from the toxic stranglehold of patriarchal and racist constructs.
It would be so nice to see women get the credit and social recognition they deserve for their amazing achievements, in timely ways.
