NO MATH NIGS!

CANNOT PROVE A NEGATIVE

However :
Why isn’t Johnson mentioned in John Glenn’s - John Glenn: A Memoir or Alan Shepard’s Moon Shot: The Inside Story of America’s Race to the Moon?

Why does Charles Murray not mention her in his seminal book on the Apollo program (co-authored with Katherine Murray), Apollo: Race to the Moon?

Why is Johnson not mentioned in Tom Wolfe’s epic The Right Stuff,documenting the sensational story of NASA’s first astronaut group, the all-white Mercury 7.

Why, especially oddly, is Johnson not mentioned in We Could Not Fail: The First African Americans in the Space Program.

Why was Johnson not mentioned in either Jet or Ebony magazine, two black magazines that spent the 1960s and 1970s simultaneously lamenting the lack of blacks at NASA and celebrating any minor achievements of blacks in the space program.

Why, given her alleged role in the Apollo 13 drama, does Johnson not appear in Jim Lovell’s autobiographical Lost Moon: The Perilous Voyage of Apollo 13(subsequently made into the Tom Hanks movie, Apollo 13).

Why does Gene Kranz, the Flight Director of NASA famously played by Ed Harris in Apollo 13, fail to mention Katherine Johnson in his autobiography Failure is Not an Option: Mission Control from Mercury to Apollo 13 and Beyond?

Etc.
No written records ever existed of this propaganda and myth of the black mathematician human calculator.... UNTIL 2005 !!!
2005 !!!! Bwah hah hahahahahahahah ! And they waited till many of the old guys died before pushing this black propaganda.
