  • Dr. Mae C. Jemison: Breaking Racial and Gender Barriers in Space
    Dr. Mae C. Jemison: Breaking Racial and Gender Barriers in Space Abigail Macduff Senior Division Individual Documentary Process Paper Word Count: 491 Time: 9:59 Process Paper When I began looking for an NHD topic, I knew I wanted a topic that was involved with civil rights, specifically on gender or racial issues. After researching multiple events, I narrowed my potential NHD topic to two women who had broken barriers in space: Sally Ride and Mae Jemison. After researching both women further, I decided to study Mae Jemison as my NHD topic. This allowed me to address the civil rights movement that occurred within America in the 1960’s, an event that has impact on my family. I began to research Mae Jemison on multiple platforms, with most of the being biographies about her. I used information I gathered from those sources as a starting point for the rest of my project. I took my search to YouTube, where I found multiple videos of her sharing her story. Although I could have easily filled up the ten-minute documentary with information I gathered from these sources, I realized Jemison’s story is not just about her, but about barriers that were broken which allowed for her to enter space. Multiple barriers were broken that allowed for Jemison to enter space, but there were two that I decided to focus on: racial and technological barriers. Although gender barriers had to be broken to make it socially acceptable for Jemison to enter space, I focused on racial barriers that had limited her.

In its complaint, Iraq accused Kuwait of making geographic changes to the maritime borders between the two countries close to Boubiyan Island where Kuwait is building a huge container harbor. Head of the National Assembly Foreign Relations Panel MP Abdulkarim Al-Kundari called on the Foreign Ministry for an explanation over what Iraq has done, describing the Iraqi measure as “provocative”. Kundari described the complaint as a dangerous development in the bilateral relations with Iraq that requires caution, adding the provocative action is totally rejected and must be confronted. He said that the Kuwaiti-Iraqi borders had been demarcated by the UN Security Council in resolution 833 issued in 1993 and any aggression against the demarcation is an aggression against the sovereignty MP Abdulkarim Al-Kundari of Kuwait. The lawmaker said that the government must deal with this claim firmly at an international level taking complete security and diplomatic precautions.
