Lifting up Black History, women’s history, and all our shared history
The invaluable contributions of Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, and Katherine Johnson to our country are hidden no more. Great afternoon presenting the film “Hidden Figures” to Brooklyn seniors at the Christopher Blenman Neighborhood Center on Friday. Really glad to share a film that lifts up Black History, women’s history, and all our shared history.
Thanks to Christopher Blenman Neighborhood Center for hosting us and to the West Indian American Day Carnival Association (WIADCA) for the colorful crowns.
