Speaking of NASA,the movie HIDDEN FIGURES was about 3 black female math wizards,their job title was computers....THEY WERE NASA’S COMPUTERS.....If math is racist,how did they get so smart AT MATH......

It was a different world. Americans of all backgrounds were prospering — and then LBJ and the “liberals” went full bore at throwing our nation off the rails.

Good point and good movie. IIRC, the lead mathematician was invited into the mission control room for a launch after she found and corrected an error in the launch data.

I also like the part where flight control guy (forgot title) found out that they had to walk far just to use a black bathroom, which caused delays in their computations. He took a hammer to the "Whites Only" sign in mission control building where they worked. These women were brilliant and a credit to their profession and race.
