San Antonio's Tobin Center hosts free outdoor screening of Hidden Figures Friday
H-E-B Cinema on Will's Plaza is bringing the critically acclaimed 2016 drama Hidden Figures back to the screen for one night. Set during the 1960s space race, the film tells the true story of Black female mathematicians Katherine Johnson (Taraji P. Henson), Mary Jackson (Janelle Monáe) and Dorothy Vaughan (Octavia Spencer), who worked as human computers to get astronaut John Glenn into orbit. Facing racism and misogyny in addition to the threat of being replaced by machines, the women triumphed by contributing to one of history's boldest scientific advances.
