HIDDEN FIGURES OF AEROSPACE – the African-American Women Pioneers of STEM
Excerpt courtesy BBC Radio 4
"Engineering Week and Black History Month, both coming up in February, rarely focus on the achievements of women of color in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. However, a new movie featuring the events around the first flight of the late astronaut U.S. Sen. John Glenn of Ohio ensures that at least three of these women are no longer “hidden” from history."
