Black Historical Figure of the Day: During her 33-year career at NASA, Katherine Johnson earned a reputation for mastering complex manual calculations essential to the beginning of the Space Shuttle program, and she worked on plans for a mission to Mars.
25 days ago, Grizwold
Katherine Johnson (1918-2020) Katherine Johnson was an American mathematician whose calculations of orbital mechanics as a NASA employee were critical to the success of the first and subsequent U.S. crewed spaceflights. She was known as a "human computer". During her 33-year career at NASA and its predecessor, she earned a reputation for mastering complex manual calculations and helped pioneer the use of computers to perform the tasks. Johnson's work included calculating trajectories, launch windows, and emergency return paths for Project Mercury spaceflights, including those for astronauts Alan Shepard, the first American in space, and John Glenn, the first American in orbit, and rendezvous paths for the Apollo Lunar Module and command module on flights to the Moon. Her calculations were also essential to the beginning of the Space Shuttle program, and she worked on plans for a mission to Mars. Johnson was honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2015 and saw her story brought to light through a book and a feature film of the same name Hidden Figures the following year.
Black Historical Figure of the Day: Pauli Murray's legal arguments & interpretation of the Constitution were winning strategies in public school desegregation, women’s workplace rights , & an extension of rights to LGBTQ+ people based on Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
26 days ago, Grizwold
Pauli Murray (1910-1985) Pauli Murray lived one of the most remarkable lives of the twentieth century. She became the first African American awarded a J.S.D. (a law doctorate) from Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. Her degree was based on her dissertation, “Roots of the Racial Crisis: Prologue to Policy.” She was a founder of the National Organization for Women and the first Black person perceived as a woman to be ordained an Episcopal priest. She was part of both the civil rights movement and the feminist movement. Following the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, Murray published a landmark article in The George Washington Law Review entitled “Jane Crow and the Law: Sex Discrimination and Title VII,” where she explains how certain legal statutes meant to protect the civil rights of African Americans still limited the scope of liberties afforded to women. Pauli Murray’s legal arguments and interpretation of the U.S. Constitution were winning strategies for public school desegregation, women’s rights in the workplace, and an extension of rights to LGBTQ+ people based on Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
