Inspired by: Katherine Johnson inspires me. As a woman of color the way she pursued her dream of reaching something at the time that seemed impossible not just for women but people of color was inspirational. She showed young women and children that if you believe that you can do something, it’s possible. As long as you put in that effort and interest you can do anything you set your mind to. She broke boundaries in gender, race and allowed the human race to break the boundaries of outer space.
