Hidden Figures
The untold story of Katherine G.

The visionary trio crossed all gender and race lines to inspire generations to dream big.
Selma
"Selma," as in Alabama, the place where segregation in the South was at its worst, leading to a march that ended in violence, forcing a famous statement by President Lyndon B. Johnson that ultimately led to the signing of the Voting Rights Act.
