parentheticalaside:kikkerje:thesmilingfish: brevityandclarity: spiderliliez: Taraji P. Henson (as Katherine G. Johnson)Kevin Costner (as Al Harrison)Octavia Spencer (as Dorothy Vaughan)Janelle Monáe (as Mary Jackson)Excerpts from one of the best biographical films, HIDDEN FIGURES (2016) I wonder how many people don’t realize this white male hero moment was made up for the film. (x) Reviving for the actual facts I always found it interesting how the movie made this white man character actively anti-racist when he was emphatically not in real life and made Kirsten Dunst’s character the ultimate racist Karen when her clearest counterpart in the book was anti-racist, to the point of being hassled by white employees over being too friendly with the Black computers. -- source link
