NPR’s report on Sally Ride’s passing. NASA’s commemoration of her life.
It’s hard to explain what Sally Ride meant to me growing up.
In short, she represented the possible. As a young girl who so often felt the limits, Ride showed me early on that you could break them.
In that way, Sally Ride – the idea of her – is this important piece of confidence deep inside me.
RIP, Dr. Ride. And thank you. Thank you so much.
