Hidden Figures: The Untold Story of NASA's Black Women Mathematicians — Segregation and Spaceflight
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores Hidden Figures: The Untold Story of NASA's Black Women Mathematicians by Margot Lee Shetterly as a systems-level analysis of how wartime labor demand, segregation, and Cold War institutions influences behavior, belief, and institutional outcomes.
By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or events, the episode shows why these systems persist — and how they connect to larger economic, political, and cultural structures.
