About this Event
Matilda Evans (physician). Archie Alexander (civil engineer). Gladys West (mathematician). Ayana Elizabeth Johnson (marine biologist). These aren’t names that many people learn about in school, but they’re some of the greatest scientists that people should know about—doctors, engineers, mathematicians, and biologists. Each of them faced challenges as they rose to the top of their professions, but they didn’t back down.
Award-winning author Tonya Bolden will discuss her new book, Great Minds of Science, which celebrates the lives and contributions of Black scientists throughout history.
