Black joy is resistance. To exist, to thrive, to find joy in a world that tries to dim our light - that is revolutionary. Whether you’re pushing through adversity, standing in your truth, or reclaiming your space, know this: your joy, your love + your resilience are sacred ❤️💚🖤

In the famous words of Uncle Snoop D-O-double gizzle. “I got my mind on my money & my money on my mind.” Grateful we were able to pivot & switch our NCSLA Fellows session to virtual. Today we are learning & sharing our experiences w/ grant writing ✍️ #NCSLA #Science #STEMed

"The crew of the space shuttle Challenger honored us by the manner in which they lived their lives. We will never forget them … as they … 'slipped the surly bonds of earth' to 'touch the face of God.'"

Ronald Reagan spoke these words to the Nation in an address delivered 40 years ago today. That morning a tragic accident took the lives of the seven astronauts aboard Challenger.

#NASARemembers them on this 40th anniversary of the disaster. Their legacy constantly guides our commitment to learning, vigilance, and safety.

Yes, kids today will grow up with AI & GPS & DoorDash at their fingertips.
But they still need to learn how to look up information, read a map, & cook their own food.
Independence, not dependence.

The world has lost a mind whose work guides us every day.

Gladys West, a pioneering mathematician whose contributions helped make modern GPS possible, has passed away at 95, peacefully on January 2026, surrounded by family and friends.

West’s mathematical models of the Earth’s shape became a critical foundation for satellite navigation, allowing precise positioning anywhere on the globe. Her work helps guide everything from airplanes and ships to smartphones and emergency services, though she once joked that she still preferred using paper maps.

Born in 1930 in rural Virginia, West grew up in the South, working on her family’s farm and walking miles to a one-room schoolhouse. She originally planned to study home economics, but discovered a love for geometry that led her to pursue mathematics. A scholarship took her to Virginia State College, where she earned her degree and later a master’s in mathematics.

In 1956, she joined a U.S. Navy research facility in Dahlgren, Virginia. Over a 42-year career, West worked with early computers to develop algorithms that accounted for the Earth’s irregular shape, gravity, and tidal forces, refinements that were essential for accurate satellite positioning.

Without the mathematical groundwork she helped establish, the global navigation systems used today would not function as they do.

For most of her career, West’s contributions remained largely unknown outside scientific circles. Later in life, she received major honors, including induction into the U.S. Air Force Hall of Fame and the Prince Philip Medal.

She inspired generations of scientists and mathematicians.

I put these two clips of Daddy together because I want to share him saying “I’m tired of marching,” then, after continuing the multifaceted work of nonviolence, saying “I’ve been to the mountaintop.”

The 2nd clip is from the speech he gave the night before he was assassinated.
