Mae Jemison was born in 1956. It was a time when little girls were discouraged from going into jobs that men usually held.  Especially if they were black. When Mae told her elementary school class that she was going to be an astronaut when she grew up. her teacher told her it wasn't possible.  Be a nurse. That's a good job for a woman. But Mae's mother had another thought. Dream it and you can achieve it. Do you think Mae achieved her goal?
