    Whoa! What an incredible image. I am SO glad to see that Black women worked on aircraft, too. I love her nail polish, and her ring. I'd LOVE to know her name, if she's still alive. This is such an outstanding portrait!

    Okay, they never taught us that black women also worked as Rosie. What a crime of omission! So cool to see this.

    “…One of the things you get a sense of [in a good design] is the victory of care. How much did this group of people care to make this — and make it right? And they didn’t do it for themselves; it’s in service to the people who are going to use or buy their product. …the humanity of the thing is extraordinary. …how’s something finished on the inside when you can argue that you’ll never see that. …part of the human condition is that we sense care. Sometimes it’s easier to realize you sense carelessness. We’re surrounded our manufactured environment — so much of it testifies to a complete lack of care. …it’s about your attitude to each other.”
