Even though they each bring something different to the table, all three women face the same challenge: living in a world where people refuse to acknowledge that how they treat you is a problem..

The character Al Harrison is doesn''t treat Katherine and Mary like they are females of color. He support every time. He think Equality is a process, not a destination and Gender doesn''t magically erase the divisions of color.

How were katherine ,Mary and Dorothy and their coworkers challenged by discrimination?How did they succed anyway?

Their work was often not credited to them, and they were frequently treated as "human computers" rather than valued mathematicians. All three women were highly skilled mathematicians, consistently delivering accurate and complex calculations, proving their worth despite the discrimination
Katherine, Mary, Dorothy, and their coworkers faced significant discrimination based on their race and gender at NASA. Despite these challenges, they made groundbreaking contributions to space exploration. Their persistence, intelligence, and dedication helped them succeed and break barriers in STEM fields. Katherine, Mary, Dorothy, and their co- workers were challenged by discrimination because of their skin color.

Katherine Johnson and Mary Jackson like females of color are Al Harrison (their boss at the Space Task Group), Paul Stafford (a white engineer), and Vivian Mitchell (their white supervisor at the West Computing group).

Al Harrison (their boss at the Space Task Group), John Glenn (the astronaut whose calculations they are working on), and Vivian Mitchell (their initial supervisor at the West Computing section); they primarily focused on their abilities as mathematicians rather than their race and gender, despite the prevalent racism and sexism at NASA at the time.

Katherine and Mary are primarily not treated as females of color by their white male colleagues at NASA, who often dismiss their abilities, underestimate their intelligence, and subject them to blatant discrimination, including segregated facilities and being assigned menial tasks, despite their exceptional mathematical skills.

The character Al Harrison is doesn''t treat Katherine and Mary like they are females of color. He support every time. He think Equality is a process, not a destination and Gender doesn''t magically erase the divisions of color. he eventually recognizes Katherine''s exceptional mathematical skills and relies heavily on her work, pushing past racial biases to value her contributions.

From the information in paragraph 10, what inferences can you draw about attitudes toward women at Langley?
Sep 30, 2023 07:43 AM
By: mimi03henry
We can infer that in paragraph 10, Langley''s actitude towards women isn''t good at all, even though women did a better job than most male engineers.

In the movie **hidden figures, the Jim Crow **laws are seen in the workplace, the black ladies had separate facilities. They had different work areas and they could not use the same toilet or take from the same coffee as the rest.

Why did the locals consider the employees a litlle peculair
Jun 10, 2023 08:02 PM
By: dontorijohnson65
locals considered the employees at NASA Langley Memorial Aeronautical Laboratory "peculiar" because of their unusual dress codes, accents, and seemingly odd behaviors, like taking apart appliances in stores to examine their mechanics, which often clashed with the local community''s norms and way of life; essentially, they stood out due to their professional, sometimes "nerdy" demeanor and habits that were not common in the area.
Mar 03, 2025 05:24 PM
By: gaysptri91
The locals thought that the langley employees were weird because they didn''t act how normal people should act, they were all geeks so they acted as such. Dorothy is gazed at as she goes to the library. The most prominent reason was the fact that African American women were working in a predominantly white professional setting, which was uncommon and challenged the established racial hierarchy.

Hidden Figures is a film with the setting in the 1960s that tells the story of 3 black women who work at NASA as a minority among other employees who are dominated by those of whites. While they were working at NASA, Dorothy was discriminated for her race so she could not be a supervisor, Mary was discriminated for her race so she could not become an Engineer and Kathrine was discriminated for her race.

What was it like when Dorothy arrived at Langley?
Apr 19, 2023 03:23 PM
By: abdulwahabbutt985
she entered a segregated workplace as part of the "West Area Computing" unit, an all-Black female mathematicians group, where she faced racial discrimination, separate facilities, and was initially hired for what was considered a temporary war job, despite her exceptional math skills.
Mar 03, 2025 04:03 PM
When Dorothy Vaughan arrived at Langley Memorial Aeronautical Laboratory in 1943, she entered a segregated workplace as part of the "West Area Computing" unit, an all-Black female mathematicians group, where she faced the limitations of Jim Crow laws, including separate dining and bathroom facilities, while being required to work on complex aeronautical research data processing, essentially performing a "temporary war job" that was initially seen as only lasting for the duration of World War .

What was the significance of the court case of brown vs boond of education
Apr 11, 2023 04:18 PM
By: asmchatha
Supreme Court ruled that separating children in public schools on the basis of race was unconstitutional. It signaled the end of legalized racial segregation in the schools of the United State. Brown v. Board of Education overturned the decision made in Plessy v, Ferguson. The Court ruled that segregation of public schools violated the constitutional guarantee of equal rights.

How were Katherine, Mary, Dorothy, and their co-workers challenged by segregati
Mar 26, 2023 05:49 AM
By: nmachin1022
They were challenged by the color of their skin thinking that katherine, Mary, dorothy and their co- workers weren''t up for the task at nasa. The segregation laws of the time forced them to use separate facilities, and they were often underestimated and overlooked for promotions.
Feb 28, 2025 09:58 PM
These women, including Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson, and Dorothy Vaughan, battled racial and gender discrimination in a predominantly white male workforce. The segregation laws of the time forced them to use separate facilities, and they were often underestimated and overlooked for promotions. They were challenged by the color of their skin thinking that katherine,Mary,dorothy and their co- workers weren''t up for the task at nasa.
Who doesn’t treat Katherine and Mary like they are females of color? How do they treat them? What do they do? (hint there are 3 people, so explain how each person treated them)
Mar 26, 2023 05:48 AM
primary character who often fails to acknowledge Katherine and Mary''s status as females of color is Al Harrison, the supervisor at NASA, who treats them with a mix of professional respect but often disregards the unique challenges they face due to their race and gender, sometimes unknowingly perpetuating discriminatory practices like not recognizing the need for a "colored" restroom nearby Katherine''s work area.
Mar 03, 2025 05:22 PM
Al Harrison is portrayed as the primary individual who does not treat Katherine and Mary (along with Dorothy) like they are females of color; he treats them with respect, valuing their intellect and abilities above their race and gender, often standing up for them against the prevalent discriminatory practices at NASA, such as demanding . He actively pushes for Katherine and Mary to be involved in important meetings and briefings where they would otherwise be excluded.
