If there is an US government agency to receive a grant from, NASA is tops!
I have received two thus far and pending another one, with another one in the proposal stage.....
NASA does things differently and congrats to A&T.....remember Hidden Figures the movie and the removal of barriers!

NASA does things differently and congrats to A&T.....remember Hidden Figures the movie and the removal of barriers! i actually met christine darden in person a few years ago who was one of the black female aeronautical engineers featured in the movie "hidden figures". yes, our people really need to appreciate our history cuz it explains why we're in the predicament that we're currently in...
