Here's our thoughts.

Three brilliant African-American women at NASA -- Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer) and Mary Jackson (Janelle Monáe) -- serve as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in history: the launch of astronaut John Glenn (Glen Powell) into orbit, a stunning achievement that restored the nation's confidence, turned around the Space Race and galvanized the world.
Today we talk about the very uplifting and empowering movie Hidden Figures (not Hidden Fences). This is so much more of a movie than just 3 women working for NASA. It really teaches you on so many levels that we had to talk about this. I hope you get to see the movie if not, take a listen to what our observations are.
