    They were called,

    That's how smart they were. I vaguely remember my sister saying she wanted to be a Human Computer back in the late 60's.
    Like these ladies, she loved math and became a math and history teacher. As soon as Computers came out, she took a course at night on her own. By then she was teaching and had her own family. But, this was important to her so she took the course after school was out. She never went as far as these Ladies. But, upon her untimely death, her school allowed her entire class and others to attend her funeral and they planted 3 trees on The campus in her honour that are full grown today.
    Anytime I asked her a question....she NEVER answered with
    "I don't know".
    She knew everything!
    So, anytime a child is really good at math, encourage them, support them bc you never know if they're a "Human Computer" with answers NASA is waiting on today.

      They were incredibly intelligent and this movie made History for them. Essentially, Glenn refused to attempt to orbit the earth without Katherine Johnson First doing her own fact check. That's amazing respect.💯

From two Black and white T.V. monitors. That sat on the right and the left of the auditorium. So we could get a glimpse of history. That wasn't told to us about these "Black Geniuses". I get a lil emotional and angry; Why were we denied, in knowing about this? It was wrong then and it's wrong now. And to know that there are "Evil Seeds" Today!! Who still believe in the "Foolery".

      As a Engineering Tech, and a Engineering Student, We in Engineering have it easy today. I could be considered a bit of a CAD jockey, and often have to make several drawings a month. For class, I was forced to do the drawings by hand. yeah, that sucked, especially when you realized missed a dimension and need to shift everything over to properly fit a dimension into the drawing. It often feels like I'm cheating in the math class when I use a calculator to get an answer to a log or function instead of having to do it out by hand, like they did. I honestly don't know if I could have gone into Engineering back then.

    Nobody ever calls Euler's method ancient. The dude lived in the 1700s and even to this day, millions of people doing math use something developed by Euler every day. Also, nobody who knows math and uses math calls any kind of math "ancient". Math is Math. It's eternal. Nobody loses sleep over using a technique discovered 2,000 years back versus 2 months back.

      I didn’t know that. Thanks so much sister Sydney. I am thankful there is a God, and in short order He will grandly and wondrously compensate for every awfulness that Blacks have had to suck up and endure. I also believe that Blacks are God’s people - what other people have had to suffer as much as they?
      Racial hate, I think, is based on envy -jealousy of Black grace, style, poise, smarts, beauty, savvy, athleticism, strength of spirit, leadership, confidence, lyricism _(rap!),_ talent, and spirituality. I think of the majesty of a great gospel choir!
      Further, the fact that our country has not made amends where possible makes it complicit with its past. Just three examples: More widespread memorials could be built that memorialize Black experience. A new permanent $10 bill bearing Dr. Martin Luther King’s image modeled precisely after the Philippines’ stunningly beautiful 500 Peso bill. Finally, an amendment to our U.S. Constitution that officially formally apologizes for the atrocity of slavery _and_ the institutional oppression that followed.
