YOU'VE PROBABLY NEVER heard of Frederic Gregory, but he was the first African-American to command a space shuttle mission. Which is pretty awesome. He'll talk about that and his childhood in Anacostia at a lecture tonight.

» Anacostia Community Museum, 1901 Fort Place SE; Tue., July 22, 7 p.m., free; 202-633-4844. (Anacostia)
