My name is Dr. Rabia Said. From time to time, I will be writing on several topics that are aimed at encouraging and advancing opportunities for everyone, particularly the less-privileged. While I will be writing on general issues affecting us all today as we live our lives in a very challenging world, I will be focusing a lot on the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and how we can harness and preserve our scarce resources to expand opportunities for all, and improve our lives. I ask that you kindly join my blog by following it. Please visit often and drop any comments and suggestions you may have. I will surely appreciate your ideas. I thank you so much. Rabia S.

Born on February 18, 1909 in rural Evergreen, Alabama, Warren Elliot Henry was an African American physicist and educator who spent almost seven decades working in the fields of magnetism and superconductivity. Henry earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics from the Tuskegee Institute in 1931, his master’s in organic chemistry from Atlanta University in 1937, and his doctorate in physical chemistry from the University of Chicago in 1941. During World War II, he returned to teach at Tuskegee, where his students included the black military pilots who would become famous as the Tuskegee Airmen. In 1943 he was recruited to work at MIT’s Radiation Laboratory to develop video amplifiers for radar. After the war, Henry continued to work in both academia and industry. He served on the faculties of several schools, including Morehouse College, Spelman College, and Howard University, from which he retired as professor emeritus in 1977. From 1948 to 1960, Henry worked at the Naval Researc

However, such a shallow perspective of Americans’ kindness is extremely far from the truth because Americans' generosity is beyond compare in particular, considering how Americans are certainly typically willing to welcome guests who are entirely unknown to them.  Being a country with a low uncertainty avoidance index, America has a culture of sacrificing for foreigners, notwithstanding the religious, cultural, political, and other inclinations of the foreigne
