<p>Black history month day 28: American astronaut Mae Jemison.</p>

<p>Mae Carol Jemison was born on October 17, 1956 in Decatur, Alabama. When she was three years old, her family moved to Chicago, Illinois for better employment and education opportunities. Jemison was always interested in science and dreamed of going to space from a young age. Once when she was little a splinter infected her thumb. Her teacher mother turned it into a learning experience and she ended up doing a whole project about pus. </p>

<p>While Jemison’s parents were always very supportive of her scientific interests, her teachers were not. Jemison  once recalled: “In kindergarten, my teacher asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, and I told her a scientist. She said, ‘Don’t you mean a nurse?’ Now, there’s nothing wrong with being a nurse, but that’s not what I wanted to be.”</p>

<p>Jemison went to Stanford University when she was just 16 and graduated with a B.S. in chemical engineering. She received her doctor of medicine degree at Cornell Medical College in 1981. During medical school she traveled to Cuba, Kenya and Thailand, to provide primary medical care to people living there.</p>

<p>Jemison first applied for the space program in 1983 after the flight of Sally Ride. The program was delayed after the space shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986, but she was accepted into the program after reapplying in 1987, one of 15 applicants out of 2000. One of her biggest inspirations for pursuing the space program was African-American actress Nichelle Nichols, better known as Lieutenant Uhura from Star Trek. Later Jemison would go on to guest star in an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, becoming the only actual astronaut to appear on the show.</p>

<p>As a lover of dance, Jemison took a poster from the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater along with her on the flight saying: “Many people do not see a connection between science and dance, but I consider them both to be expressions of the boundless creativity that people have to share with one another. She also took some small art objects from West African countries to symbolize that space belongs to all nations, and a picture of African-American pilot Bessie Coleman.</p>

<p>Jemison is now 60 years old and currently serving as the principle of the 100 Year Starship organization.</p>

<p>I sincerely hope you have enjoyed going on this educational journey with me this month, exploring 28 inspiring figures in black history. It was a lot of fun for me to do research for this project and I learned quite a few things along the way. I really tried to get at least some figures who are less commonly discussed during Black history month. There is a lot of information I didn’t get to cover, so I would strongly encourage you to read up on everybody I’ve mentioned this month because they have some very interesting stories to tell!</p>

<p>Sowell was born in Gastonia North Carolina on June 30, 1930. His father died shortly after his birth and his mother was a housemate who already had four children. So his great aunt and her two adult daughters adopted and raised him. When he was nine years old he moved from the Charlotte area to Harlem as his family sought better opportunities. He qualified for Stuyvesant High School, a prestigious academic high school in New York City, and he was the first in his family to study beyond the sixth grade. Unfortunately he had to drop out at 17 due to financial and home life difficulties. He was drafted into the Marine Corps during the Korean War and due to his photography experience, he became a Marine photographer.</p>

<p>After his discharge from military service, Sowell got a service job in Washington DC and took night classes at Howard University. His scores or so impressive that they gained him admission to Harvard, where he graduated magna cum laude in 1958 with a bachelors degree in economics. He earned his masters from Columbia the following year.</p>

<p>In his 20s Sowell considered himself a Marxist, but his experience working with the government as an intern in the 1960s changed his philosophy to more free market economic theory. His writing from then on has been from a libertarian conservative point of view. Sowell received a PhD in economics from the University of Chicago, published numerous works on economic and political philosophy, and serve as a professor at many universities including Cornell. He is currently a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.</p>

    stanford university: Stanford Swimmer Who Raped Unconscious
 Woman Gets Short Sentence Because Jail
 Would Have a Severe Impact on Him
 By Dayna Evans
 Brock Allen Turner, the former
 Stanford swimmer who was
 discovered raping an unconscious
 woman behind a dumpster on
 campus in January of last year, will
 be sentenced to six months in county
 jail and probation. Prosecutors had
 recommended that Turner receive a
 sentence of six years, but judge Aaron
 Persky determined that Turner's age
 20 - and lack of criminal history
 warranted him a much shorter
 sentence.
 "A prison sentence would have a
 severe impact on him," Persky said at
 Turner's sentencing on Thursday. "I
 think he will not be a danger to
 Brock Allen Turner. Photo: Stanford University
 others." Meanwhile, the 23-year-old victim in the rape case, who had had a
 blood-alcohol level three times the legal limit at the time of the rape and
 who had no memory of the attack, gave important testimony at the trial.
 "You took away my worth, my privacv, my energv, my time, my safetv, my
 intimacy, my confidence, my own voice, until today," she said, reportedly
 directly to Turner. "I am a human being who has been irreversibly hurt."
 And yet it's Turner who would be severely impacted in his sentencing?
 Right.

This is rape culture.

This is white male privilege.

This is injustice.

The rapist and the judge are revolting, sociopathic spawns of the devil.

Rapist: Brock Allen TurnerJudge: Aaron Persky

Let the Judge know how you feel: Department 89: Honorable Aaron Persky, Santa Clara County (apparently up for re-election next week?) Courtroom Clerk (650) 462-3880 Court Reporter: (650) 462-3885

RAPISTS DESERVE EVERYTHING THAT THEY HAVE COMING TO THEM. This is absolutely sickening.

I have been absolutely livid about this whole thing. Here’s a picture of a statement from the rapist’s father, just to add insult to injury….
Also, the survivor’s statement should be obligatory reading for EVERYONE for years to come. Parents, show this to your kids, EDUCATE THEM.
Read HERE.
Reader’s discretion is advised, there is some explicit writing about the rape.
Again, read HERE.

[Source: This petition.] 

Update: Judge Aaron Persky is running unopposed for Seat 18 so, 
he is not even on the ballot. 
We can file complaints about his 
ethics violation however. 
More info on Judge Persky: This is not the only time he has shown bias in favor of student athletes.
 He also coached lacrosse at Stanford. His inability to remain 
impartial in the face of his personal prejudices is well-established and
 he is unfit to serve.
The powerful letter the victim read aloud in court can be read here.

 "You took away my worth, my privacv, my energv, my time, my safetv, my
 intimacy, my confidence, my own voice, until today," she said, reportedly
 directly to Turner. "I am a human being who has been irreversibly hurt."
 And yet it's Turner who would be severely impacted in his sentencing?
 Right.

This is rape culture.

This is injustice.

The rapist and the judge are revolting, sociopathic spawns of the devil.

Rapist: Brock Allen TurnerJudge: Aaron Persky

Let the Judge know how you feel: Department 89: Honorable Aaron Persky, Santa Clara County (apparently up for re-election next week?) Courtroom Clerk (650) 462-3880 Court Reporter: (650) 462-3885

RAPISTS DESERVE EVERYTHING THAT THEY HAVE COMING TO THEM. This is absolutely sickening.

I have been absolutely livid about this whole thing. Here’s a picture of a statement from the rapist’s father, just to add insult to injury….
Also, the survivor’s statement should be obligatory reading for EVERYONE for years to come. Parents, show this to your kids, EDUCATE THEM.
Read HERE.
Reader’s discretion is advised, there is some explicit writing about the rape.
Again, read HERE.

Update: Judge Aaron Persky is running unopposed for Seat 18 so, 
he is not even on the ballot. 
We can file complaints about his 
ethics violation however. 
More info on Judge Persky: This is not the only time he has shown bias in favor of student athletes.
 He also coached lacrosse at Stanford. His inability to remain 
impartial in the face of his personal prejudices is well-established and
 he is unfit to serve.

    stanford university: Stanford Swimmer Who Raped Unconscious
 Woman Gets Short Sentence Because Jail
 Would Have a Severe Impact on Him
 By Dayna Evans
 Brock Allen Turner, the former
 Stanford swimmer who was
 discovered raping an unconscious
 woman behind a dumpster on
 campus in January of last year, will
 be sentenced to six months in county
 jail and probation. Prosecutors had
 recommended that Turner receive a
 sentence of six years, but judge Aaron
 Persky determined that Turner's age
 20 - and lack of criminal history
 warranted him a much shorter
 sentence.
 "A prison sentence would have a
 severe impact on him," Persky said at
 Turner's sentencing on Thursday. "I
 think he will not be a danger to

 blood-alcohol level three times the legal limit at the time of the rape and
 who had no memory of the attack, gave important testimony at the trial.
 "You took away my worth, my privacv, my energv, my time, my safetv, my
 intimacy, my confidence, my own voice, until today," she said, reportedly
