Huey Newton explains how some Black people accumulating large amounts of wealth can actually be a bad thing for the Black community
Random but I was looking at jet magazine again and apparently they did an article on Katherine Johnson and the other people from "Hidden Figures" in 1961. I don& #39;t care about nasa so I haven& #39;t read it but I thought it was interesting that they were not "hidden" in black media
