‘Hidden Figures’
Hidden Figures, the 2016 Oscar-nominated film, tells the story of some of the most important women behind one of the biggest symbols of America: NASA. The film, which follows a team of Black female mathematicians who helped shape the U.S. space program, is an excellent 4th of July streaming choice. No parties to attend or fireworks to see this year? No problem. Instead, watch Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer), and Mary Jackson (Janelle Monáe) send U.S. astronaut John Glenn into space.
