"Mae Jemison (born October 17, 1956, Decatur, Alabama, U.S.) is an American physician and the first African American woman to become an astronaut. In 1992, she spent more than a week orbiting Earth in the space shuttle Endeavour.

Jemison moved with her family to Chicago at the age of three. There she was introduced to science by her uncle and developed interests throughout her childhood in anthropology, archaeology, evolution, and astronomy. While still a high school student, she became interested in biomedical engineering, and after graduating in 1973, at the age of 16, she entered Stanford University. There she received degrees in chemical engineering and African American studies (1977).

In 1977 Jemison entered medical school at Cornell University in New York City, where she pursued an interest in international medicine. After volunteering for a summer in a Cambodian refugee camp in Thailand, she studied in Kenya in 1979. She graduated from medical school in 1981, and, after a short time as a general practitioner with a Los Angeles medical group, she became a medical officer with the Peace Corps in West Africa. There she managed health care for Peace Corps and U.S. embassy personnel and worked in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control on several research projects, including development of a hepatitis B vaccine."

After returning to the United States, Jemison applied to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to be an astronaut. In 1987 she was 1 of 15 accepted out of 2,000 applicants. Jemison completed her training as a mission specialist with NASA in 1988. She became an astronaut office representative with the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida, working to process space shuttles for launching and to verify shuttle software. Next, she was assigned to support a cooperative mission between the United States and Japan designed to conduct experiments in materials processing and the life sciences. In September 1992, STS-47 Spacelab J became the first successful joint U.S.-Japan space mission.

Ed Bradley (born June 22, 1941, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.—died November 9, 2006, New York, New York) was an American broadcast journalist, known especially for his 25-year association with the televised newsmagazine 60 Minutes.

As a student at Cheyney State College (now Cheyney University of Pennsylvania), Bradley worked his way into broadcasting by volunteering at Philadelphia radio station WDAS-FM. After graduating with a degree in education (B.S., 1964), Bradley became an elementary schoolteacher but continued to work evenings in radio jobs that ranged from disc jockey to reporter. The station finally began paying Bradley a small hourly wage after he spent two days covering a Philadelphia race riot; however, he did not leave his teaching job until 1967, when he joined WCBS radio in New York City as a reporter.

Bradley held many other positions with CBS. He worked briefly in Paris in 1971, was stationed in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon), Vietnam, and Phnom Penh, Cambodia, in the early 1970s, and was injured by shrapnel while reporting in Cambodia. He moved to Washington, D.C., and began covering presidential campaigns in 1976, eventually becoming a White House correspondent. His feature stories, however, drew on topics from around the world. In 1980 he won awards for two CBS Special Reports: The Boat People (1979), exploring the plight of Southeast Asian refugees, and Blacks in America: With All Deliberate Speed? (1979), his in-depth examination of African American progress since the Brown v. Board of Education decision. He joined the staff of the long-running 60 Minutes in 1981. Bradley received numerous honors during his career, including 4 George Foster Peabody Awards and 19 Emmys.

Jesse Jackson, originally Jesse Louis Burns, (born Oct. 8, 1941, Greenville, S.C., U.S.—died Feb. 17, 2026), U.S. civil rights leader. He became involved with the civil rights movement as a college student. In 1965 he went to Selma, Alabama., to march with Martin Luther King, Jr., and began working for King’s Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC). In 1966 he helped found the Chicago branch of Operation Breadbasket, the SCLC’s economic arm; he was its national director from 1967 to 1971.

Ordained a Baptist minister in 1968, he founded Operation PUSH (People United to Save Humanity) in 1971. From the late 1970s Jackson gained wide attention through his attempts to mediate in various international disputes, including in the Middle East.

In 1983 he led a voter-registration drive in Chicago that helped elect the city’s first African American mayor, Harold Washington. In 1984 and 1988 Jackson entered the Democratic presidential primary, becoming the first African American man to make a serious bid for the U.S. presidency; he received 6.7 million votes in 1988. In 1989 he moved to Washington, D.C. and was elected the city’s unpaid “statehood senator” to lobby Congress for statehood.

In 2017 Jackson revealed that he had Parkinson disease, and in 2025 he was diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy, a neurodegenerative condition.

Today on February 17, 2026, the Reverend Jesse Jackson passed away.

Henrietta Lacks

"In 1951, a young mother of five named Henrietta Lacks visited The Johns Hopkins Hospital complaining of vaginal bleeding. Upon examination, renowned gynecologist Dr. Howard Jones discovered a large, malignant tumor on her cervix. At the time, The Johns Hopkins Hospital was one of only a few hospitals to treat poor African-Americans.

As medical records show, Mrs. Lacks began undergoing radium treatments for her cervical cancer. This was the best medical treatment available at the time for this terrible disease. A sample of her cancer cells retrieved during a biopsy were sent to Dr. George G*y's nearby tissue lab. For years, Dr. G*y, a prominent cancer and virus researcher, had been collecting cells from all patients - regardless of their race or socioeconomic status - who came to The Johns Hopkins Hospital with cervical cancer, but each sample quickly died in Dr. G*y’s lab. What Dr. G*y would soon discover was that Mrs. Lacks’ cells were unlike any of the others he had ever seen: where other cells would die, Mrs. Lacks' cells doubled every 20 to 24 hours.

Today, these incredible cells — nicknamed "HeLa" cells, from the first two letters of her first and last names — are used to study the effects of toxins, drugs, hormones and viruses on the growth of cancer cells without experimenting on humans. They have been used to test the effects of radiation and poisons, to study the human genome, to learn more about how viruses work, and played a crucial role in the development of the polio and COVID-19 vaccines."

February is Black History Month!

"David Blackwell (born April 24, 1919, Centralia, Illinois, U.S.—died July 8, 2010, Berkeley, California) was an American statistician and mathematician who made significant contributions to game theory, probability theory, information theory, and Bayesian statistics and who broke racial barriers when he was named (1965) the first African American member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.

Blackwell, the son of a railroad worker, taught himself to read as a boy. He initially planned to become an elementary school teacher, and at age 16 he entered the University of Illinois, where his early aptitude for mathematics blossomed. He earned bachelor’s (1938), master’s (1939), and doctorate (1941) degrees, and, after a postdoctoral fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, New Jersey, he briefly worked for the U.S. Office of Price Administration.

Blackwell sent applications to numerous African American colleges, and he worked as an instructor at Southern University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and Clark College, Atlanta, before receiving an appointment in the mathematics department at Howard University, Washington, D.C., in 1944; he became head of the department in 1947. In 1954 Blackwell was invited to join the faculty at the University of California, Berkeley, where he became that institution’s first African American tenured professor. He also served as chairman (1957–61) of the statistics department there. He was additionally appointed professor of mathematics in 1973, and he retired in 1988. While working (1948–50) as a consultant at the RAND Corporation, Blackwell applied game theory to military situations by analyzing the optimum timing of theoretical armed duelists."

In March 2024, NVIDIA unveiled its next-generation GPU architecture, Blackwell, named in honor of Dr. David Harold Blackwell (1919–2010), a groundbreaking African American mathematician and statistician. The Blackwell platform is designed to power a new era of computing and generative AI, with CEO Jensen Huang highlighting its role as the "world's most advanced GPU".
