When I think of the great scientific achievements - putting a man on the moon, coming up with the covid vaccine - I think of it as something we've done. I think, "we put a man on the moon." Even tho I had fuck all to do with it.
Back when I lived in Nigeria, I would think, "they've put a man on the moon."
As an African, I felt outside of the world of mankind's successes - and I don't think it was just me.
I can't quite explain why.
