The Black Women Who Figured Out How To Get A Man To The Moon

submitted by eric3579

HIDDEN FIGURES is the incredible untold story of Katherine G. Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson—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 galvanized the world. The visionary trio crossed all gender and race lines to inspire generations to dream big.

Katherine Johnson Biography http://www.visionaryproject.org/johnsonkatherine/

Katherine Johnson loved to count https://www.nasa.gov/audience/foreducators/a-lifetime-of-stem.html

I want to see a video of Bill Burr doing a review of this movie (not just the trailer).

Holy tetrahedron!

Oh the Hollywood drama, three black girls save the space program, like Bruce Willis saves humanity.

Like they werent badass enough in reality. How do you make someone look like a hero if what they do is basically indistinguishable from accounting? You make shit up.

Maybe if Neil Armstrong stopped the moon from crashing into the earth, that could be a good movie.

*promote

There are so many great black role models to look up to. The media just provides useless basketball players are Al Sharpton.
