If anyone wants or needs inspiration with regards to Black contribution to Science and in particular early Computing and Space then they need look no further that "Hidden Figures" (what a great title), without whom the merkins may well not have got into space and some may well not have got back again. Not only is it about black folk, they are actually women as well.
An enthralling film and I'm sure an equally good read.

Depending on how this post is received I might add a list of some of my favourite greats in different walks of life.
