    Dr. Gladys West, Mathematician Whose Work Made GPS Possible, Dies at 95In 1956, West began working as a mathematician at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Dahlgren, Virginia. She was only the second African American woman hired at the base and one of just four African American employees at the time. What followed was a career that would quietly change the world.https://thezebra.org/2026/01/18/dr-gladys-west-mathematician-whose-work-made-gps-possible-dies-at-95/ #BlackGenius #BlackMastodon

    They were many. Not just rulers, but households, elders, childrenโ€”lives lived inside systems of memory, labor, belief, and power that did not require a single name. So, to say โ€œAfrica is a countryโ€ is not a cartographic error. It is the residue of trainingโ€”what remains after empire leaves but its grammar stays.Africa moved as many worlds. It still does.1/ 7#history #blackmastodon Image: Map of the ethnic diversity of Africa, overlaid with country borders. Source: National Geographic.

    Oof. #Therapy was deeeeep today.For the first time, I realized that we (Black folks) are potentially in another diasporic moment wrt all the current fascist shenanigans.Like, if These Assholes get the country they want, this will force a number of us to flee. All I could imagine during the session was a data viz of millions of little dots flowing from Africa to the Americas; then the dots growing and multiplying along the north- and southeast; then the South; then the Great Migration North (and the smaller one westward); and now...the unknown streams of Black folks *away* from America...back to Africa?We talked about the burden of legacy that exists in Black families (usually in the form of the one family member who has been assigned that role of legacy keeper). I wear that double legacy in my family: enslavement on one side, colonialism and migration on the other.All this on my birthday.#BlackMastodon #BlackFedi
