Summer Movie List: “Hidden Figures” highlights the ongoing legacy of women and minorities in STEM. NASA’s early achievements in air and space would not have been possible without the Black women who worked in the “West Area Computing” unit at NASA between 1943 through 1958. The West Computers group overcame discrimination and contributed to virtually every area of research at Langley. Some of these notable women include Katherine Johnson, Mary W. Jackson, and Dorothy Vaughn. #BlackatNASA Despite the inspiring stories of these women, women and minority populations still face barriers to studying STEM and entering STEM Careers. JerseySTEM works to reduce the gender gap in STEM participation, bridge the innovation gap in STEM education, and address the opportunity gap by expanding access to STEM programs in underrepresented communities.
