I only recently found out his actual name was Tensing Norgay and he was the main driver getting up the mountain and his skill and dexterity was really what made it possible.
I know some folk will hate bringing politics into this but that’s what BLM is really talking about. Prejudice right there in the way history is taught to 8 year olds in British schools.
