I love her comments. "Men didn't have the patience." This is a true statement for so many levels.
There ARE differences between the two genders. The differences should be embraced not excoriated.
THEY JUST NEVER FOUND ONE AS SMART AS KATHERNE JOHNSON, THEY ARE OUT THEIR BUT NOT FOUND.
I agree, especially with children.
@@robertparker2907yes an Amazing woman now what man can top her?
I have read so many books and watched hundreds of documentaries and this is the first time ive heard about this remarkable mathematical black genius. Shes brilliant! My heart is singing.
Yes she is a genius regardless of the color of her skin or gender.
Take note: at 38:10 the article calls her a brilliant woman mathematician. You could learn a lot from that one sentence.
Katherine Johnson deserves all of our flowers. This program is really well produced. They did their research and it lines up with what I studied about her. It even gave me some clarity on some details like a simple definition for analytic geometry.
I was 14 when Neill Armstrong walked on the moon yet sadly 65 when i learned that this brave lady played major role that made it possible. They should name a building in her name.
NASA does have a building now named in her honor
Thanks for the reply....I discovered that info after some research. Appreciate your help though :)
Saying major role is stretching it a bit lmao
@@andylucas6962
Yeah I knew that would be your response. Can't handle black brilliance.
@@Chacha355 calm down lol yes she played a part, but out of 400,000 other brilliant people, just to put into perspective 🙄
Catherine Johnson is a beautiful example of honor, resilience, humility, good pride, dedication, inspiration, and love to pursue your dreams. I absolutely love her history and my respect, and gratefulness goes to her straight to Heaven.
@Hal 9000 I AM TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THIS ANSWER YOU JUST WROTE I DON'T GET IT (teh-what does it mean)?
@@robertparker2907
Forgive him; he just crawled from under a rock and possibly the result of inbreeding as well.
a genius
"Katherine."
Her name is onscreen multiple times.
Wth is wrong with you?
This is so amazing 👏. I wish this was something our American schools would have mentioned to us as kids as an example of a role model. I am 56 years of age and I am so intrigue and moved. I love this woman for her gift and her non selfishness to share her wonderful talents to the world. She really deserves a monument. Bless her 🙏 soul.
Well said
She should have a Mathematics scholarship and school named in her honor.
@@billyhndrsn4542 well said
Instead the American youth of today are indoctrinated to worship a drug addled thug.
@Miguel Pagan
That will never be taught because it is considered CRT like all other accomplishments of black and brown people in America and throughout the world.
Thanks to all who helped bring this story too Life.
What an honest and amazing person
There's no words I can offer other than thanks for your service and thanks to all who helped bring this story too Life.
Just amazing
Tough . Awesome. Phenomenal. Genius. Just a damn good human!
They should make a postage stamp honoring this woman
Mindblowing what Katherine Johnson did.
Indeed
SHE BROKE BARRIERS WITH HER BRILLIANT MIND.SHE WAS AHEAD OF HER TIME.R.I.P KATHERINE
Yes, she could not be denied!!!
Sadly, so many stories are left unsaid of brilliant black women in history. Katherine's story was one but C.L. Walker was the 1st female self made millionaire. Imagine the honor of being the 1st female and also being black. I say give credit where credit is due.
Humble sheer Genius. May God bless Her and Family
My grandmother sodered circuits together for the Space program in the early 1960s working at Gruman on Long Island.
"soldered."
It's in every dictionary.
Your grandmother knew where to look.
Why don't you?
@@user-dh6bj2me5p Oh you admit there were other women who contributed to the success of the SPace program other then black women?
Me too, I loved learning...When I went to college, I wanted to take a class in every field; just to leaned. But I then realized that I was getting behind my major. Then I had to focused on my major..even now at 69 I am always learning something new..
That's an educated mind.
Such a remarkable woman. Her contribution to society should never be forgotten. The movie " Hidden Figures" told of her struggle
and how she achieved her status. I cannot remember of ever being taught or told about her in school.
gov. ron desantis said her story has no value
I'm 67 and I'd never heard of her until the movie "Figures:.
I think the shameful treatment of blacks in that era is something the system didn't want to acknowledge. I'm glad she has been getting some of the recognition she deserves. Such an intelligent, kind and focused person you do not see today!
I’m glad Hamer finally realized that he needed to present this brilliant woman and get her name on the research.
A genius, she seems so humble, a humble genius...? I bet not even one person in ten thousand would know her name or all that she acomplished, what a shame. I hope she is recognized and revered in the departments of science at every historically black college, a source of inspiration to every black student and scholar.
I’m a 74 year old white man and I new of her and her accomplishments
It is really sad that any ethnic group should be denied their potential. One never knows from where a solution to human concerns may come.
The thing is , it shouldn't just be black students at black universities who know about her and her accomplishments. That is how we as Americans have lived for hundreds of years. Where black students knew and white students didn't. This seems to be the world that certain political figures and groups want to keep us locked in. They see nothing but harm in white students knowing anything about the U.S. and the world that doesn't uplift them and only them. You see to rule people you have to keep them ignorant. All of them.
on the grand scale of things she contributed very little
President Obama stepped up to the plate to recognized greatness. No other President before him would do so. It only took some 50 odd years. RIP Katherine Johnson. Well deserved medal.
God Rest Her Humble Soul And About Dayum Time
The inspiring story of an amazing woman. Reading about Katherine, I noticed an important part of her remarkable patience and wisdom: her faith.
The movie “Hidden Figures” tell an excellent story about this lady and the other 2 who was very important in NASA’s history. Mrs. Johnson’s story is very inspirational
She was a national treasure. A walking computer.
So much more respect for her than rosa parks
Give her a holiday in her name.
These women ARE our first computers. They were like you say literally walking computers. They just didn’t make calls and take pics lol
Yes but treated the same as dirt until at nasa, only after did she become a person, shame on America indeed, shame
A national treasure it says. How hypocritical of America. She was considered sub human until she showed what she could do. Even hated at NASA, and once she saved their space programe, she became a human being in the eyes of America, if that's not open hypocrisy not sure what is
Superb! The real person behind the scene is even more interesting, praiseworthy, and laudable than even the eye-opening and educational Hollywood movie. Her contributions live on, and will eventually carry us far beyond the confines of our solar system. Who could have known? And I am so thankful that people helped her all along the way, and that she made herself of service.
This is but one of the myriad stories of the 'space program'.
So interesting to see the articles in the black press about her at the time. I knew nothing about her or her colleagues until the movie Hidden Figures. Thank you Ms. Shetterly.
An awesome documentary about a pioneer.This is history that should be taught daily.Truly a gifted individual.
Except in Florida of course
Truly a gifted black woman/female! ☆☆☆☆☆ Katherine Johnson!☆
I often wonder how historians would write about my life, when I haven't been charting my progress. That's why this documentary on Katherine is fascinating for me. There's something compelling to be said about all of us.
She helped with Apollo 13, and that new craft that flew up and came back....oh yes the space shuttle. I am astonished. She almost singlehandedly saved many lives, improved technology, and proved to humankind that her kind was fine and fine for us all.
This video goes a bit further than “hidden figures” if you’ve seen the movie watch this, if you’ve seen this then go see the movie. This is a companion video. After I saw the movie I thought there has to be more on Catherine Johnson this video makes the story come full circle🤓
I'm a big fan of the movie. I'm so glad I found this documentary. It really does compliment the movie viewing pleasure.
Just watched hidden figures.what a trio of women.inspirational.
Love that movie they nailed that casting g Katherine actor nailed the speech she thi g she did
When explaining her frustrations
this documentary is great, what a woman, thanks for posting it.
In my opinion, she was a genius!!!
certified genius , high right tail IQ and innovative
No the the real geniuses were the scientist that were brought over from Germany
'Her Story' was and is quite touching.. To all those women and to those who have supported and nurtured them, Thank You.. 😊😊
This is a great documentary, her story is very inspiring.
Its always hurtful to me when i see or read about ppl like Katherine who climbed Everest everyday of their lives who regardless of that contributed so much to the world and Society as a whole. Thank You to Katherine for her fortitude ,contributions and the example she set for others to follow and succeed despite all the road blocks put before her ! Rip Katherine ! Gratitude is not enough !
Contributed very little if truth be told
AMEN 🙏 Truth be told!☆ The higher power knows & waiting for humans to catch up!☆ Always always do the right thing! Leave your ego behind hidden!; weather your a female or a male! Jealousy will only keep you from getting what you want! Whatever you put out to the Universe is what you ATTRACT back ✨! ☆☆☆☆☆
This is a inspirational story . Bought tears to my eyes
How people overcome prejudice of race and colour and rise to the fullest
@@amitavadutt621 Prejudice is not just about race and color.
At the same time Catherine Johnson's story is inspiring and awessome and triumphant but at the same time is very sad and troubling. How many "Catherines" have we squandered over the years in the name of hate? American history is fraught with waste and want because we cannot get out of our own way.
@teammosin9999: Have often wondered the same thing. As if finding people to hate is more important than actually getting ahead.
"Katherine."
Duh.
"Katherine."
What is wrong with you?
What an incredible woman! And there have been so many others whose stories we will never know. I’m glad I know hers.
CATHERINE DESERVES WORLD WIDE RECOGNITION, SHE WAS AMAZING 👏 GREETINGS FROM MEXICO 🇲🇽 ❤
There’s a movie about her …she has it!
@@micheley2140 do you know the name?
The movie is "Hidden Figures."
"Katherine."
@israel172251 also a book with same name
Just finished watching Hidden Figures, and went straight to this docu! Can't get enough of Ms Johnson! 4/23/24 11:34 pm PST!
She achieved greatness no matter how much obstacles thrown at her way. Oh! what a brilliant woman.
John Glenn trusted her with his life over several computer's,did anyone notice the size of them ?
I watched John Glenn's flight with dad having friends over. It was like a championship game playoff sounds with lift off. Then we continued to get together for rest of launches, what fun an excitement watching that history!
What an amazing women and a great role model for young girls and women.
I see her as a role model for everyone regardless of gender and age.
There are to many cynical critics in the comments section. This woman never got the recognition she deserves. She was denied of her fame like many other intelligent men and woman of colour that were left out of the history books.
People of colour were deprived of education, they are still being deprived of earning a proper wage or living anywhere they want or choose to live in the US, they still are not getting the jobs the apply for.
You have no data to evidence this assertion
@@theblindvisionary do you have any data to say that things have improve in the last 55 years?
@@theblindvisionary what evidence do you need?
Seriously, I will get it for you.
These were not victims. They were victors.
@@theblindvisionaryHAHAHA 😆 HAHAHA, YOUR ATTITUDE ALONE PROVES IT AS MORE THAN FACTS 😂
Guess I’m the exact opposite of an outlier… what an amazing woman!!! Bless her
I'm just glad she was able to see how much her outstanding and highly impressive intellect was and is appreciated before she died. I've always hated hearing a person largely ignored when alive lauded in death and they aren't around to see that yes their contribution is appreciated and matters to many.
Beautifully done documentary.
20:50 she basically did the research and wrote the report and yet he has a building named after him... he probably was very worthy of the honor of having a building in his name but I wonder what other stuff has his name but someone else's work 🤷🏽♀️
What a marvelous woman. My respect and admiration from Chile
I love that she grew up knowing that everyone is equal; That men aren't better than women and women aren't better than men. It doesn't matter what color you are, or your gender. It matters in your personality.
Better at what? Everyone must be equal before the law is the goal if not the reality. Equality does not apply to individuals in any other way.
In fact men in general are better at many things then women are (physics is one of these things.) On the other hand women in general are better than men in general at multitasking.
Specifically there are many exceptions to these generalizations and when a woman such as Poland's Marie Curie excels at physics we properly celebrate her achievement by granting her the Nobel Prize for her work. Marie Curie is one of four women to be so honored (about 1.8% of the 221 awarded so far)
space chip: I agree. She was raised by intelligent people.
You're not better than anyone else and no one else is better than you. Parents should be teaching this.
@@brucefrykman8295 These generalizations exist because we make them exist. Men are not better in general at physics than women and women are not better at multitasking than men. The. re is no physics gene tied to the Y chromosome and there is no multitasking gene tied to the x chromosome. You are describing societal adaptations tied to gender-based upbringing, attitudes, and opportunities. It's like they used to insist that black men lacked the capacity to be quarterbacks when the reality was black men were never given the opportunity to train to be quarterbacks at the university level so they were unprepared to become one at the professional level. Yet this belief persisted from the 1950's to the 2000's. and we called it natural affinity when in reality it was just society.
@@clementmckenzie7041 *RE: "These generalizations exist because we make them exist."*
Nonsense, they exist because they are true regardless of your postmodern nonsense. Name any other species of mammal in which there is no specialization between the sexes. We have at least a million years of humanoid specialization in which the bones, muscles, and brains of our species have specialized between the sexes. One hundred years of industrialization and tampons have not erased the time and distance computational skills of spear-throwing muscle and brains of males to have now merged with nursing, cooking and clothes making brains of females.
*RE: "There is no physics gene tied to the Y chromosome and there is no multitasking gene tied to the x chromosome."*
Oh yes there is and you just named it; it's called the Y-chromosome.
Are you still trying to cling to the notion that billions of re-curing accidents of chance have put men in the dominant positions in terms of technological skills? Sorry it does not wash and I have over 40 years of engineering experience and can attest to the fact the among the 5% female engineers among our ranks I have never run into a first class female engineer capable of original design brilliance.
Of course exceptions do exist, it's simply that they are vanishingly rare. I have twice reported to female VPs of engineering and neither possessed the ability to design a doorbell circuit. One was promoted to her position by the CEO from her previous position as his executive secretary as part of some "equal opportunity" play; the other simply slept around until the executive staff tired of her and fired her. Both companies failed, naturally. Competent engineer VPs require exceptional engineering skills as well as technological vision. Its absence produces authority that is vacant of brain power and this and will always doom an engineering enterprise in the long run.
*RE: "You are describing societal adaptations tied to gender-based upbringing, attitudes, and opportunities."*
Ahhh, it's "gender based upbringing" that gives the stag its rack, the ram its horns, the rooster its talons, and the boar its tusks. Only among the mammals, are humans unique in their ability of sequential hermaphroditism; is this where you rest your case?
I don't care what color their skin is; woman who can do that kind of higher math and love it have all my respect!! I hate math. You go girl! Proud that women had a hand in the Space Race! And typing that 35 page paper on an old manual typewriter???? I learned how to type on a manual, then went on to electric and finally computers. Every one of those formulas have to be typed out and manually SPACED, the paper raised and lowered to be able to type the numbers above and below the lines. Very technical typing! Today's computers are programed to space out the formulas - back then it was all done by moving the paper up and down via the roller (called a platen). Also, this report shows she did not have to fight to get her name one the reports the way the movie shows. The man she was working for wanted her name on the reports. Movie lied about that too.
Brilliantly done Katherine Johnson!
Miss Katherine Johnson...We salute you!!..you are amazing!
So proud of her... a true treasure....
Hidden Figures, a brilliant group of women, each in their own specialised fields. WHY did it take so long to be explained to the world🥳🥳🥳🥳
What a wonderful story about a Wonder Woman. Thanks Timeline.
Thank God for people like her! I was no good at math and I always appreciate people who can do it.
I never heard of her doing my time in school back in the 60s and 70s
BUT , THEY CLAIM RACISM WASNT THAT BAD
"during."
Not, "doing."
So inspirational for young girls who wish to be a scientist, engineering, astrophysicist, astronaut, geologist and so on 👓🎓🔭🔬:)
What an amazing American Icon.
Thank you Mrs Johnson for taking man to the moon.
You are an American Icon. You are a genius and thank you for showing so much dignity in a very insane time in America.
You are a Super Star, your name will live forever here on earth and in the Stars.
❤️❤️❤️😀🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏
Not only is this woman smart, but sge is beautiful to ! makes America proud !
I & the Worlds and Galaxies abundantly thank u beloved legendary Mathematica Genius Scientifical Astronomer innovative engineer Dr. Miss Katherine Johnson ♡.
God!+♡ put Katherine Johnson in that place/spot at that specific time for a reason!● Praise God! How many times do we need to see it to get it? White males get over yourselves. Only if applicable not for white or any color of men or women that are jealous or insecure?; Get it!?¿•●. Finally!+ Work on yourselves for only You! Can change you & your thinking! It's holding you back with narrow minded thinking.☆♡ like that
What an amazing woman. The kind of person of such significance that you read about them in history.. but have since been long gone. I can’t believe I was alive during her lifetime 🚀
Achieving under any circumstances and with long suffering with no dependency on others! That my friend is the recipe for progress!
All I can say is this: THANK YOU!!!!! for doing this video. As soon as Hidden Figures came out, racists were trying to minimize the contributions of the black women featured in the movie by claiming that they exaggerated her contributions. This video makes it clear (even more than the movie) that Katherine Johnson's contributions were pivotal to the success of NASA's early launches.
So much to learn from the movie, awesome lady and a behind the scenes genius.
Wonderful contribution from Catherine Johnson. Bless her heart.
"Katherine."
Did you not see her name everywhere in this video?
Wth is your mental malfunction?
"Katherine."
Must be unintelligent to not see her name all over the video and still get her name wrong.
Isn't it amazing how well we do when we all work together and recognize the talent of each other
Wow... The next time a student asks what use is geometry I will share this amazing woman's story.
I trust the lesson most learnt in USA should be that educating all citizens regardless of colour creed race.gender ... Will produce wonderful pearls of brilliance
The hurdles of discrimination she bested and kept her divinity and intelligence is still shining example to us all especially USA
Fortunately I am born in Caribbean island of Trinidad where education to tertiary level remains state funded and accessible equally to all it's citizens.
As we celebrate our 60th anniversary of post colonial rule I am reminded to be thankful for all these benefits we take for granted.
Thanks for brining this to light and screen.
Heritage stories to always push us to be best of humanity
In a world going mad it seems.
A great history documentary. The background music is way too loud. Is it needed?
A absolutely wonderful brilliant person who makes me feel absolutely confident about the things that anyone can't believe what they say about the same thing for us because we have just have to congratulate her for all she has done for all of us she is a great heroine for us all I wish to say a massive thank you to you yours ernie from England Nottingham now
Do you think Russia would have been so predigist? They wanted to be the 1st ones to outer space!☆?● Such ignorance the white egotistical male continues to make their decisions with their Egos!?; projecting their own insecurities on others? Sad!● Sad!!• Sad!!!?¿•. Will they ever learn? Political???
I was assigned to Langley Air Base during the same period (1969) when Catherine Johnson was there at NASA side of the base which was on the opposite side of the run ways, if memory serves me well.
Well done! I love the movie and I enjoyed this documentary very much- filled in some of the details not covered by the movie.
Personalmente admiro muy profundamente a Katherine Johnson!!!

Wonderful GREAT Story!
A very good and interesting documentary
A story 60+ years in the making, can't wait to see it :)
I CAN SAFELY SAY THAT MISS KATHERNE JOHNSON IS THE MOTHER OF THE US-SPACE-PROGRAM AND SHE SAVED THE LIVES OF ALL US-ASTRONAUTS (MY-2-CENTS).
An incredible woman indeed!!
*I was there as a wee lad from the start of the Jet Age, to the Space Age, and now the 2nd Moon Race. Man what greatness America created back in those days!* 👍🏼✌️🏼🤜🏻🤛🏽
What a true patriot and inspiration Katherine is I was a Child during the time of Apollo . I remember glancing at the TV seeing the Men walking on the moon or riding the moon buggy. My dad watched it all and loved it the evening Apollo 11 were on the moon my dad took me outside and pointed to the moon telling me two Americans are on the moon he could hardly contain his excitement and I said I can't see them. What a inspiration it would have been knowing a very intelligent women significantly helped to put them on the moon . I hear this fifty one years later better late then never.
We got a glimpse of it our our classroom window in Daytona Beach,
So inspiring!
I bet ya those technical reports were the work of Katherine and the man's name was there for window dressing...
Loved the story. But even more, I love the narrative and his voice. Incredible. Kept me intrigued.
That’s a great woman .
Truly amazing individual!!!
What an incredible woman. I'm so glad I found this documentary. This really puts the movie in a beautiful perspective.
My father grew up during segregation and he was one of four black students to integrate his high school in Opp, Alabama.
What beautiful lady, I wish I could have met her before she passed away.
So Precious a Life Story.
In the movie when the astronaut said he trusted her math over the computer, a wonderful eye-opener.
John Glenn was also saying without saying it that he trusted her MATH over any of the white males!? Right ✅
Every time that I think about this lady, Katherine Johnson, I'm reminded of the many persons who could have been of so much help to this country who were, and are, being sidelined, and deliberately. If one should take a look at what's happening right now, the US is cutting off its nose ...
My grandmother was a secretary for one of the engineers in space task force group. When she had seen the movie she remembered a lot of the names and didnt see but heard about the sign being taken down.
The sign was never taken down that part was fiction
@@jemimahndi2589 considering my grandmother worked for space task force group and was there. I will take her word over your ignorance
@@franklast7955 : Historians have said the sign never came down b/c the bathrooms and the offices were NOT segregated! That part of the movie is a lie.
We never learned about her in school. Why not?
I don't k ow but she deserves to be taught about
She is from whit sulpher springs wv 10 miles from my home!! such an inspiration thank you for sharing!!
Cool
Having just watched Hidden Figures again, this popped up on my YT recommendations. Very interesting documentary. Ironically I'm watching this in Davao City Philippines in a rental room on Sputnik Rd...
10:20 Regarding her secret marriage when she could not teach if married reminded me of something. When I was in school, even white teachers could not teach once they started “showing”. Of course, most of us kids had siblings and pets so we understood pregnancy.
I lost my kindergarten teacher to this silly policy in the middle of the term.
as a white dude in my 60's who considers himself well informed, I'm a bit miffed I learned about this story recently from a movie, and not taught about it school.
Amazing lady!
Thank God for her
