Recetly, I caught up with singer Janelle Monae who was being honored at the Power Up Awards in Beverly Hills. We chatted about female empowerment and her first starring role in a film, Hidden Figures. She plays Mary Jackson, a real-life mathematician who was part of an all female, African-American team who worked at NASA during the Civil Rights Era.
The movie also stars Octavia Spencer and Taraji P. Henson. Do you have an interest in seeing Hidden Figures when it comes out? Comment below!
