We’re remembering Dr. Gladys West, the brilliant mathematician whose work helped make GPS what it is today. We previously had the chance to speak with her about her career and legacy. Though her name wasn’t widely known for decades, her math changed how the world navigates. We honor her life and legacy and thank her for paving the way for future generations. | AARP Black Community

1M views · 30K reactions | Black people have invented so much for America and we get no love for it. GPS is a black woman, 3D imaging is a black woman, laser eye surgery is a black woman, the escalator is a black inventor, the elevator, open-heart surgery etc. We can keep going and going! They took everything and lied to us but I’m glad it’s all coming to the light. #Blackinventions #BlackHistory #Godfrey GODFREYLIVE.COM Get your tickets to see me live! | Godfrey Comedian | Facebook
