Everyone is relevant in our life

As life has been going on, and as science has been evolving, we find out that there were more people doing certain things that we recognize one or two people.  We normally think about the faces of the company, Jobs, Gates, and so on, but not on the faces that really made it come true.

That was the case of the Apollo mission, where more than one University or even one part of the government has part of it, but we only think about Aldrin, Armnstrong and Nixon.  And we normanny forget the ones that really made it possible, the scientists, mathematicians, phisics, engineers and so on. 

Inside this minority group there are other groups that are part of these groups, but because of  their time,  they were not recognized of doing this job.   Personally there's one story that I like, where they say that Kennedy was going to visit the headquarters of the  mission, and due to the importance of it, and the agenda that was following, he needed to visit this place as fast as he could. In this case a janitor didn't move from his place  even though people told him to do. Finally, he met the president and while he was there, he told him that he was helping them to put a man in the moon.

In this case there are many jobs that stay in the same place, and due to their skin color or gender,  become hidden. This was the case of Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson, women of color that become an important piece of the Mercury project and the Apollo mission, per se.  In this case, they develop the role of Katherine, a colored woman mathematician, that began her job as a computer and finished as someone as important as any other one there. 

In this case, the movie shows the segregation that they lived as colored people in the USA.  And how they stopped this rules due to something more important to them, winning the Communist. And also they showed that there are things more important than  the way we look, the way we think. 

I consider this as the most important lesson of this movie because we live in a society that tends to think about the way we look is the whole definition of who we are, without taking into consideration the way we think or what we know.
