Such an empowering movie! I just love to see movies that showcases strong women. It is nice to see more wonderful role models for the new generations to look up to an see themselves represented in the media.

Absolutely adore this film. The recognition and attention being shown of these phenomenal black women who were so exceptional in spite of all the segregational world threw at them. We know the names of the men who stepped on the moon but not the women who got them there. Brilliant film. Brilliantly made. Inspiring and wonderful and also shows ways the world should never have treated a person. Will watch again, easily.

Well worth watching. Sometimes knowledge and skills comes from those you don't expect.

Not bad but I did expect more after watching the trailer. Something's more inspiring. I love how they successfully portrait the discriminative reality of that time. How these women feels and belittled. They did lead in their fields and showed others what they can do.

Rewatched this recently and still hits as hard as the first time. Amazingly written, a real insight into the history of segregation and how far we’ve come but still so far to go.

The actors in this movie are fantastic and very good at playing their roles. They enlighten us and gives us a good insight into how it was for a young and very smart woman to grow up during that time. I would recommend this movie at any time!
