obeto, 
Let us celebrate Captain Edward Dwight, Jr., who was the first Black person selected to the United States astronaut corps.
Captain Dwight would have been the first Black man in space.
However, his career was wrecked by racism and other threats by US government officials.
He left the USAF in 1966. #blackhistorymonth #blackmastodon #usaf #nasa https://thegrio.com/2024/02/10/astronaut-ed-dwight-national-geographic-the-space-race/
