"Our children/students deserve to know and respect the names behind the technology they use every day. Dr. Gladys West, the mathematician whose work made GPS possible, passed away on January 17, 2026, at age 95. Her journey—from a small farm to the National Inventors Hall of Fame—serves as a powerful bridge between classroom learning and real-world impact. Let’s commit to sharing her story to help our children see the greatness within themselves and others." Visit www.BlackMiracles.com
