    HIDDEN FIGURES is the incredible untold story of Katherine Johnson (TarajiP. Henson), Dorothy Vaughn (Octavia Spencer) and Mary Jackson (JanelleMonae)-brilliant African-American women working at NASA, who served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, a stunning achievement that restored the nation’s confidence, turned around the Space Race, and galvanised the world. The visionary trio crossed all gender and race lines to inspire generations to dream big.
    Directed by Ted Melfi
    Starring Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer, Janelle Monáe, Kirsten Dunst, Jim Parsons, Mahershala Ali, Aldis Hodge, Glen Powell and Kevin Costner

    What I loved about this movie is that it didn't raise the black women by lowering the white men. The white men in this movie are very smart, very capable, very professional people. It just illustrated that the black women could operate on the same level as them, which is what people didn't really expect. And then there's several scenes where the white women are like, "It's not my fault things are the way they are." I loved that because while most people aren't outwardly racist, the fact that they were content to just leave things the way they were was the reason that it took so long for equal rights to take hold, and still hasn't completely to this day. I just want to know if Katherine Johnson ever got a pay raise to what she was worth in all those years she worked at NASA.

      I disagree on one point. After laws were equally applied then civil rights job was done and after civil rights laws were past the ball is now in each citizens court to do with as they please. Its correct to say black Americans started behind white Americans but that does not mean they had to stay there. MLK said after blacks were freed then they were free to only die which is kinda the idea you seem to be working with but I don't agree with that school of thought because anyone is free to die as a slave just give up. Once you have freedom you now have the chance to live. Fredrick Douglass is the prime example of this very idea. The man was literally freed from slavery when and got himself an education and became a statesmen. From no chance to live to seizing every opportunity to live to his fullest. This school of thought you have is currently hanging over my trans community when really its up to us. If we show society we also contribute then society accepts us because society wants success. Some blacks throughout history have done exactly what I want to happen in the trans community and it has worked. So what you start the game late, all that means is you have more data than anyone else and can keep from following the same mistakes. Asians who came to the U.S. long after black Americans were free were even more successful than white or black Americans while still dealing with racism also. I would also point out Asian american also preach strong family units not just because of the many Asian cultures but also because they probably saw how successful it was for black Americans from the 20s to about the 50s. It does not mean blacks had it easy but at the time more black Americans percentwise were rising out of poverty faster than their white counterparts up until the government offered to take care of single mothers removing a father responsibility and eventually decaying into black men being locked up because of a lack of a man in the household to teach their young men how to act and be successful in society. When you see well off or stable black families the father almost always present. Granted I also think having 2 parents is better than one but that is an opinion backed by science.

They didn’t try and didn’t make it dimeaning about the “white man”.They were plenty smart and I felt that was well represented too. The ladies could literally keep up with them, it was just they’ve never gotten a chance until now really. The white women were even just like “that’s just the way it is, sorry 🤷🏼‍♀️” and it wasn’t that they were being outwardly racist, it was just that they were so used to the way of the world they couldn’t see that these things were wrong or that the women weren’t being treated equally or set to the same standard! :) (I hope this made sense the way my head made it make sense)

      The GOOD NEWS IS that more and more of U.S. are finally seeing the connections and voting so many of the hundreds of politicians involved,
      especially from one particular political party, OUT of office today.
      Over 1,000 in fact nation wide in the last 10+ years and counting.

    So, I'm a historian. I *love* finding out about the 'not famous' people that make the big stuff possible. For example, LCdr Rochefort and his codebreakers at Pearl Harbor that allowed the USN to ambush the IJN at Midway. 'Hidden Figures' was a real eye-opener for me. Katherine Johnson should be held up to every single girl interested in STEM as a heroine to be studied and emulated. For that matter, all the Black 'computers and calculators' who did the tough math by hand.
    I mean no sarcasm whatsoever when I say that watching this was rather like watching sailors manning the sails on a tall ship... I'm fascinated and impressed with the work but have no desire at all to do it myself.
