Wining About Herstory

Ep56. Helen Keller's Inspiration & The Enchantress of Numbers


Listen Later

This week's episode is full of resilient kids, slutty mathematics, and polynomial functions (which Kelley & Emily are both super familiar with.) First, Emily shares the story of Ranghild Kata who, at three and a half years old lost her sight, hearing, sense of taste, and sense of smell. Nevertheless she persisted and learned to communicate in some amazing ways! Then, Kelley covers a herstory heavy hitter- Ada Lovelace who combated her mother's worries about her becoming a raging slut to become one of the greatest mathematical minds of her time! Brush up on your Norwegian and grab your calculator, because it's time to wine about herstory!
