Why is it that no one ever addresses her as Dr. Johnson? She deserves it, she worked for it!

Mocha 126, My husband and I read the book after seeing the film Three times! Both are great!

This is fantastic. HIDDEN FIGURES is a GREAT film and the bestselling book it's based on is wonderful, too. My husband and I saw it Three times at the theater. And that is where everyone should see it. It's about the space race and the big screen better lends itself to the scope of that amazing endeavor.

Just watched this on U.K. first showing I believe. I saw in the cinema on its release and today still teared up at the end and felt euphoric at the same time. A detail I missed at the cinemas was Mrs Vaughan's Fortran knowledge which i yelled at seeing as I too studied this at college. I was unable to gain a job in I.T. for 2 years after college due to it being 'a mans world' and being told I had lack of experience. I went on to work successfully in many other industries but never I.T., sad but true.

awesome film. I am delighted that the women who were pioneers in the of science and mathematics have been recognized for their exceptional expertise. NASA history is finally coming to light. What a beautiful part of American History. It is my prayer that many people from America and Internationally will have an opportunity to view the film and experience the role African American intelligent women had to take in making themselves a part of the mosaic structure of our democracy. These women gave much to the fabric of America. Lucretia Payton Stewart PHD Emerita Associate Professor department of Educational Policy Studies Georgia State University

Than you Lucretia Stewart. From our families point of view, it has taken far too long, however the time is now and we, our entire community, can now celebrate the accomplishments of all these pioneering women. :-)

I want to read the book because it has more details in it. As a writer I love reading autobiographies because it is more interesting. You can even get the book from the library. as well. A beautiful and amazing story that needed to be told. So glad that this movie was made.

I went to several bookstores but they didn't have the book. I hope to go to Barnes & Nobles because I'm sure they have the latest books!

Some films are so excellent, I buy the book or screenplay to understand the unspoken thoughts that contributed to the decisionmaking process. Thanks for posting.

I would like to thank NBC's show Timeless, for giving me a heads-up on Katherine Johnson. I watched the television show and heard her name mentioned. I then went on to google typed in her name, bam the lady's name and photograph popped up. I now watch Timeless every week, because the show feeds in real history (especially African-American history) along with a plot line. As anyone can see the accomplishments of these brilliant women was truly hidden.

Thank you, and big thanks to these great ladies. THANKS!!!💝🎉🎉🎉

Read the book! Read the book! If you thought that the movie was righteous, then the book will absolutely blow your mind. The book is much more detailed than the movie, as is to be expected, and is lucidly and even elegantly written. Congratulations to Margot Lee Shetterly. You can get the book online or at your local public library.

I would love to see the movie again but in video so I can see this in closed caption. What a wonderful movie! I have to say I lived through some of the black's flight and it was hard to understand the discrimination that occurred. I was a little girl and it disturbed me that the blacks have to use different bathroom instead of just bathrooms for everyone.

A positive movie with black main characters that portray they have a brain and not just talent in sports, fashion or the music industry and not police officers and maids or best friends of people of another ethnicity etc 👍👏😃

I have to see this movie. Until I can, I'm going to read the book ASAP -- even though my general rule is movie 1st book second, whenever possible, otherwise I tend to pick the movie to pieces. But from what I can tell, I don't think that'll be the case here. Bottom line, it's both. I liked hearing from the author of the book very much. Thanks.😊

At my company, we are trying to increase female presence in IT. We are still struggling to find girls. There are only about 20% of girls going into IT studies at college in this day and age. All girls should watch this

7 жыл бұрын

mujkocka Can I make a suggestion? I don't mean this to sound cold, but reserve the word "girls" for when you're taking about females under the age of 18; otherwise, we're women. It might attract more women to IT to not be talked about as if we're children. Most of us don't refer to adult men as "boys" as a matter of course, and it just feels belittling, and off-putting, for most intelligent women to be patronized. It matters because you want women to feel like they belong - that's what this movie is about, as long as you have the aptitude, you belong. Everybody is cognizant of how they are perceived by others, language is a window into other people's perceptions of you. I would understand if what you meant was more *girls* should be encouraged to excel in STEM activities and courses as they go through K-12 education, but that wasn't what you meant (though that would be the proper place to start). Help empower women to believe they belong in IT. Katherine Johnson had many mentors from childhood through to her career - perhaps you shouldn't wait for girls *or* women to come to IT, maybe mentor someone who shows aptitude but who may need encouragement.
