There's primaries in a bunch of states today, and in Congress there's
been a lot of wrangling over bills lately. I hope they can get them
done before recess.
The last week of July was rough with
several major deaths. Sad to hear about Nichelle Nichols passing, but at
least she won't suffer any more from dementia. There had been talk in
recent years about legal disputes among her family and caretakers. I
think it was last year that I watched the Woman in Motion
documentary about her mission to recruit diverse hires for NASA. Black
people were skeptical of NASA's sincerity, warning her that "they're
using you" for PR, but she said, "I'm using them" to get real change.
What a big difference she made!
