Mae Jemison Became 1st Black Woman To Fly In To Space On This week In 1992
On September 12, 1999, Jemison fulfilled a lifelong dream she held ever since she was a small girl in Chicago by becoming the first African-American woman to fly in to space.
Graduating in 1977 with a dual degree in chemical engineering and African-American Studies, Jemison faced racism from professors as a Black woman taking up engineering.
Jemison later obtained a Doctor of Medicine in 1981 from Cornell University and travelled to developing countries to provide primary care.

No one can do it better
A little over one year of being “natural”. Yeah I caved halfway through and got a mild relaxer, as well as giving my hair some heat damage. I hate the idea of keeping up with all that so I guess now I’m transitioning. But really I’m at a I give no fucks and will and do whatever I want with my hair phase. So long as I think it looks cute that’s all that matters. ^_^
