昨天回了版上一篇詢問關鍵少數裡，Mary Jackson在請願去純白人學校上課時，
對法官講的那段話，結果好多人來信都想知道，所以就直接發一篇在這，讓想
知道的人可以直接參考，但因為我是在英國看的，所以我沒辦法給中文版，這幾
天會再去三刷一下中文版。
這段話裡面我已經先省略了她對法官說，你是家族第一個服役的，第一個念大學
的，第一個連任的。
希望有幫助到你們
Your honor
You of all people should understand the importance of being first
The point is no negro women in the State of Virginia has ever attended
an all white school. It's unheard of.
Before Alan Shepard sat on top of a rocket, no other American had ever
touched space. And now, he will forever be remembered as the US Navy man
from New Hampshire. The first to touch the stars.
And I,sir. I plan on being an engineer at NASA.
But I can't do that without taking those classes at that all-white high
school.
And I can't change the colour of my skin. So I have no choice, but to be the
first.
Which I can't do without you. sir.
Your honor, of all the cases you'll hear today, which one will matter in a
hundred years
from now?
Which one will make you the 'FIRST'?
