Im 31 and randomly came across a video about the Challenger disaster. Looking at photos, I had a desire to know about the Black Man in the photo and how he ended up there. After watching several more videos and reading a couple articles, I found out about this library and the part it played in his life. I his I can visit with my children one day✌🏽
