Ronald McNair: Eyes on the Stars


This StoryCorps animation is not only fascinating because it shows the tenacity of a young Ronald McNair, who became the second African American to enter space, but also because he's from the home of my paternal grandfather, the very small Lake City, South Carolina.

  2. Isn't that something? I vaguely remember hearing about Ronald McNair, but I was drawn to his story because of his sharing the hometown of my grandfather. I'm going to do more reading on Mr. McNair. What a hero!
