Vale Katherine Johnson, one of my superheroes

[Melinda French Gates @melindagates]

As a #NASA mathematician, Katherine Johnson made moments of wonder possible. I remember watching the Apollo launches as a girl, in awe as the rockets took off to explore new frontiers.

I’m grateful for the barriers she broke—in space and in society. https://t.co/vsRvTJrp67

Another quote from @lisaharveysmith at @PressClubAust today:
“Senior leaders must enact specific tailored targets and strategies for removing structural barriers to women’s advancement in the workplace”

Amazing speech at @PressClubAust by Women in STEM ambassador @lisaharveysmith!
“Upskilling 1% of our workforce in STEM would add $57B to our GDP over the next 20 years - imagine what gender equity in STEM could do”

@Klick22 I'm so sorry Kalinda. My brother-in-law did the same last year, so I know something of the pain of those left behind having walked this path with my sister-in-law and nieces. I agree we need to talk about it more. It takes real courage to ask for help
