This picture just screams “nigga move, I’ll do it.”

Yall don’t know how it feels to see a picture like this, when I can count the number of black women in my major on my hand. Like this is not a field they expect us to succeed in or want to learn. So to see THIS, all of these black women, confident in their own intelligence and the only ones who knew how to get shit done, it made me feel less alone

‘Hidden Figures’ beat ‘Star Wars’ at the box office this weekend

It was a close race that looked deadlocked Sunday, but Monday morning brought good news for Hidden Figures:

The film won the box office this weekend and is officially the no. 1 movie in the country.

This is the win that will make Hidden Figures a success not just at the box office, but also with the Oscars.

And most of all, as star Taraji P. Henson noted on Instagram, it again proves movies about women and people of color make money. Read more

I heard it was huge.

Wow! I’m planning to see this.

As you can read more at the link, this is especially impressive given that it was in many less theaters than Rouge One (2,471 vs. 4,175).

It is *excellent* and should be on everyone’s “must watch” list 🙂
