This Today in Black History is pretty special to me because, as a kid, I wanted to grow up and become an astronaut. On February 9th 1995, NASA astronaut Bernard Harris Jr. became the first African American to perform a space walk. According to Wikipedia, Dr. Harris clocked 18 days, 6 hours and 8 minuets in space. Even more exciting is that Dr. Harris is still alive and currently serves on several governing boards, including the Board for the National Math and Science Initiative and National Space Biomedical Research Institute, and is the Founder of the Harris Foundation. Dr. Harris, thank you for your shining example of what achievement can mean for young African Americans today.

Today in Black History

In 1954, just three days after Autherine Lucy acceptance to the University of Alabama, she was suspended, and later expelled "for her own safety". Riots broke out for three days, after the U.S. Supreme Court ordered her admission. It wasn’t until 1980, when the university overturned her expulsion, and she finally earned a master's degree there a dozen years later. Talk about a dream deferred.
