"You can’t really turn down these types of opportunities because if you’re given this gift, you got to give it forward,’ Martinez said." is the sentence which supports the point that Amer, Martinez, and Williams-Byrd feel honored to represent women of color who work for NASA.
Engineers Amer, Martinez, and Williams-Byrd have known each other for 25 years. There weren't as many women at Langley when they first arrived as there are now.
Martinez explained, "We kind of gravitated toward each other." "Because we're all in different fields, we don't run into each other all the time."
"Langley is a very tight community," Amer said. "We are very supportive of one another."
"And somehow, headquarters decided that the three of us would be chosen," Williams-Byrd explained.
"You can't really turn down these types of opportunities because if you're given a gift, you have to give it back," Martinez explained.
Amer believes that each woman's unique background and accomplishments played a role in her selection. “Each of us brings something different to the table,” she said.
