Re: Apollo
Black Astronauts are not tokens in the American space program. There have been 15 of them that have gone into space, starting with Guion Bluford in 1983. Frederick Gregory was the first black pilot and commander of a Shuttle mission. There have also been multiple black women in space. There are currently black women in NASA's astronauts program, one of whom (Jeanette Epps), is scheduled to go to the ISS in Boeing's Starline.
I've meet Jeanette Epps, she is not a token. It is a fully qualified member of NASA.
I know this is an old fashioned request, but do you have any proof that these women are tokens?
There is a difference between saying it would be an opportunity to put one of NASA's qualied black women on the moon and putting a black woman on the moon because she was a black woman. I thin the first was what was meant. Jumping to conclusions in the absence of evidence is rarely a good idea.
