Westside Community Schools, WE-SIDE, and Film Streams invite you to join in celebrating Black History Month with a special free screening of the movie Hidden Figures!

Date: February 24, 2025
Location: Film Streams Ruth Sokolof Theater
Doors open: 5:30 PM
Movie starts: 6:00 PM

This powerful film tells the inspiring story of a group of pioneering African-American women who made groundbreaking contributions to aeronautics, astronautics, and played a crucial role in America's victory over the Soviet Union in the Space Race. These women overcame adversity to showcase their brilliance and help shape history. As Margot Lee Shetterly, author of the book Hidden Figures, said "Their goal wasn't to stand out because of their differences; it was to fit in because of their talents."

For more information and to RSVP, see the flyer attached. We look forward to celebrating this important chapter of history with you!
