Me too. I love it. So proud of ALL those ladies. And of how Katherine carved out her place in that time of race bias and disrespect. Must have watched this film about a half dozen times. And will again. Brilliant.
I think it is a shame that we are only learning about these gifted black women 50 years after the fact! I grew up in the 50s and 60s and knew nothing about these women.
You're half right it's a shame that we still treat most women this way and it's 2024 sorry to hear or sorry to say but most people still think it's a man's world
@@backyardgrillmaster2910 Men aren’t doing a very good job of running this world. There’s millions of competent women worldwide who could do a better job, if given the opportunity. Hopefully in a parallel universe

I'm 59 going on 60 this month. I'm white. I live in the South. I watched this movie and loved it. I loved this scene. It showed two things. First, how intelligent people are, not just Kat, but also her boss. Secondly, how painful the lives of those who lived as adults in those times. I was 'taught' the N word. From people like my grandfather and his sons, my step-uncles. If I never met him or that portion of my family, I stand here now and wonder how my view on life and my world around me might be different. I have a lot of black coworkers and even had them as a boss or supervisors in the military. I learned a real truth then. These men are really no different than me. They simply had a different path through life that I had. Funny, how a 2 hour movie can still produce such discussions. Reach down, examine, and let's talk.
Thank you for taking the time to share your family history, you’re absolutely right, her boss was truly amazing too. We all have so much talent and are stronger together. Thank you my friend for sharing and I do wish you and your family, all the blessings in the world 🙏
@@baybaymarino5498 Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Who Helped Win the Space Race is a 2016 nonfiction book written by Margot Lee Shetterly. I hope this helps
I ABSOLUTELY ❤ THIS MOVIE. I ❤ HER AS KATHERINE GOBLE/JOHNSON. I ❤ KATHERINE JOHNSON. What really pisses me off about this movie+real life is John Glenn NEVER recognized her to America and the world and what she did. Do you have any idea how much that could have/would have improved race relations back then??
Absolutely right!!! We were and still are damned for being smart.... much less blindingly brilliant!!! We were and still are mined for that brilliance yet given zero credit for it. As is proven by the "discovery" of brilliant black minds and what they accomplished throughout history!! Things we use to this DAY but never knew was invented....built by Blacks.
I love that answer, "I held it up to the light.". That was a great job of redaction! He had told her to look beyond, and she did. I would love to have her brain. I struggled with math and science my entire life. My brain just doesn't work that way. I'm a words person, I am a concepts person. I'm not sure exactly what I am, but I do know that math and science don't fit into my brain. My physics professor told me that I was very intelligent person and that there's no reason why I shouldn't be able to grasp the concepts. Anyway, I've made this all about me, but I do have to admit that I'm envious of her scientific brain. I love science, I just can't understand it beyond a certain point. My brain just will not go there. I guess we all have different strengths, and it obviously has nothing to do with sex or race.
I'm the same. Words have always been my joy. I love them. I love fitting them together into something no one else ever has, something unique to me. I love reading poetry and marvelling at how words can convey such vast images and emotions when placed just so by the poet. Books too. I have over 1000. Numbers? They pass through my brain on a freight train going nowhere. I was ALWAYS bottom of my class. I don't understand numbers. Only the basic functions like simple addition/subtraction and easy fractions. Anything over that is lost. I deeply admire Katherine and all the ladies for their gifts. This film is very special. I think when Scott Glen made it clear he would only 'go' on Katherine's say is the pivotal point where all those stuffed shirts actually REALISED her genius and had to respect that. And her.
Fantastic movie! ❤️awesome acting! ❤️ A movie that taught me about people & how they were instrumental in the success of NASA missions. ❤❤❤ why did it take so long. I think I know. It’s in black & white.
So this is 60 years old and we are just finding this out now. Don’t you think we should have known earlier. This person deserves recognition and the countrys thanks. It’s not color but perception on both sides .
This says a lot about life, two steps forward, one step back. Every person will be fine, but life will go on. Greed, money, and jealousy will still be around. This is something we all have to change in ourselves. Syb.love ❤
We should always be looking for more history like this, not less. I'm sure the positive Black history we know in this country is only a fraction of the good things that Black Americans have contributed to this country. It's just a fraction, but certain people want to make it even smaller by deleting our history. Black history is American history, period.
I found the bathroom scenes the best. Really brought back memories for me. I grew up in Hawaii, joined the service during the mid sixties. The first time I had to fly from a commercial airport, had to use the restroom. I was shocked to see separate bathrooms and water fountains. My queries met with laughter from the Whites and some tried to explain why but it just confused me more. Unfortunately, I learned and was exposed to that racial bias during my whole time serving. Was glad to be back home in Hawaii.
It's always beautiful when the truth is brought to the light, and those who doubt or are hoping for a person to be crooked or evil are shut down😌 Good morning 🦅 💜, I'm grateful for another one✔️ Always trust in the Lord or the God that you serve to vindicate you 🙏🏾 He has all the knowledge and power that we need when we're not knowledgeable. Ask and you will receive no matter who tries to sabotage what..Keep God first😊 God bless everyone in this scene When Jesus says yes nobody can say no..
_ some believe his story doesn't tell half of what her story might contain but they even made God a male - after all who wouldn't want a god with ball(s), ain't that so mike ❕❓❕
You forgot the most important part. She was better than he was. He probably would have been ok with a black woman; if, she wasn't also better. Pure jealousy.
What a waste. Allowing such a mind to be hindered from sexism and racism. While we've improved in large ways from this era we still waste our talented women far too often.
Absolutely, the accomplishments of women are not emphasised enough. As a Personal Trainer, I encounter many women who are far fitter than men in their age group
What is an African American!!?? Is it born in Africa then come to America!!!??? Im not an Irish American, i was born in tge USA!! My distant relatives were from across the pond!
Thank you for your comment. Yes I know there’s a lot of debate around the term African American. To be honest, I’m still debating it myself. I guess it’s a way of identifying black Americans by ethnicity, instead of colour. Having dialogue is good and in a perfect world, we won’t be judged by skin colour. Thank you
As great as their contributions were and are, can we call them what they are? They are Americans, Historians, Mathematicians, and Teachers. Why put African or black in front of what they are? It cheapens, in my opinion, what and who they are. Skin color should not matter, Democrats!
I completely disagree. For too long the contributions of non white and women’s accomplishments have not been highlighted. Yes, we hear about black athletes and musicians but never black and female academic achievements. We will have to agree to disagree.
Im really glad they made this movie
Absolutely, I had no clue about these ladies
Me too. I love it. So proud of ALL those ladies. And of how Katherine carved out her place in that time of race bias and disrespect. Must have watched this film about a half dozen times. And will again. Brilliant.
This film is on my list of " i could watch it over and over". I know its dramatised but it should be shown in schools.
Absolutely 💯 we all need to know this
It was a really good movie, and you learned a little something about these ladies 👍
I agree.
I have respect for her and the way she handled herself answering the questions
She was smarter than everyone else.
Absolutely she was 💯
aber ya,
She was a very intelligent woman. Much more intelligent than most of the people she worked with/for.
Absolutely 💯 she was more intelligent than her bosses
And I'm sure her bosses knew that, whether they admitted it or not.
Absolutely her bosses new that
Did you know there were quite a few intelligent white women in the history of America!!!
I think it is a shame that we are only learning about these gifted black women 50 years after the fact! I grew up in the 50s and 60s and knew nothing about these women.
It's what happens when white people don't want Black History taught.
Absolutely we need to know more.
