Astronaut Starbright #TheLittleMermaidChallenge

Hi, my name is Taylor Richardson. Some know me as Astronaut StarBright advocating to bring more girls especially girls of color to STEM. Many others know me for my movie screening challenges like Hidden Figures and A Wrinkle In Time, that brought hundreds of thousands of youth and their families across the world to see black women and Black girls represented in STEM and girl empowered themes. I have always believed if you can see it you can be it. This is why I am raising funds for 1,000 Black girls to see the upcoming Disney film The Little Mermaid, that will have its first Black mermaid princess Ariel, played by Halle Bailey. The goal is simple, to allow Black girls to see themselves and to know that we too can and will be part of that world! So I hope you will join me and donate to my campaign. Better yet, start your own #littlemermaidchallenge at a theater in your community! Let’s bring Black girl magic across the world come May 26, 2023!

See ya under the sea,

Taylor
