Today we're sending the first black person & the first woman to the moon.

But I know that Dr. Mae Jemison was the first black woman to travel into space when she served as a mission specialist aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour in 1992.

Also, Jemison became the first real-life astronaut to appear on #StarTrek
Here's Jemison as Lt. Palmer in #StarTrekTNG episode Second Chances talking to Nichelle Nichols, Star Trek's Lt. Uhura, outside the set.

This advice from Lauren and Laura at Weak Ties/Strong Bonds is framed for womxn consultants — and it's excellent. 💕

But I'm sharing it publicly because I know a lot of men who desperately need these lessons. Yes, I'm talking about, you, Boo Boo.

Women are socialized to ask whether we're truly qualified before saying yes. Men are rarely told to do that — so they don't. They say yes, figure it out (or don't), and the people around them absorb the mess. Ugh!

Lauren and Laura lay out four genuinely responsible ways to take on work that stretches your capabilities:

→ Learn it (with transparency and appropriate pricing)
→ Build the capability (bring in the right partners)
→ Own the outcome (lead and quality-check, even if you're not executing)
→ Stay in the room (make smart referrals, don't just disappear)

🎯 "You need to be the person who can ensure it gets done well."

OK, off early to this circus.

I’ll be in the Supreme Court courtroom today for the oral arguments over Trump’s effort to end birthright citizenship.

There are no cameras and Trump is expected to attend, so subscribe to Law Dork to get my full report after I’m out of court: https://www.lawdork.com/
