  • REPOST: Dr. Roger Arliner Young
    Feb 18 2025

    It's Black History Month! This week is a repost from season one about Dr. Roger Arliner Young. She was America's first black, female zoologist to get her doctorate. This month I'll be honoring the black, noble goddesses in STEM who inspire, motivate, and forge paths for those who have been marginalized. She is, no doubt, one of my favorite sheroes who succeeded despite our structural racism and antiquated gender bias.
