"Women in Motion"

The film Woman in Motion is inspirational, and exceptional. Nichelle Nichols is very inspiring for people that are trying to accomplish what she did, she also made history. Her life was also interesting, it was interesting, because at the beginning of her life she wasn't thinking about becoming what she is, she just wanted to be a singer, then she went on to become very inspirational.

I loved "Woman in Motion"

I watched "Woman in Motion" with a series of emotions (lots of crying) with my young daughters. The film is fantastic! I admired Nichelle Nichols since I was a child. Watching her in Star Trek made me love Science Fiction even more and I always dreamed of the things that I could do. The future indeed seemed promising. She was a singer, dancer, a theater star, a movie and tv icon. This movie covered the importance of her role in Star Trek, as well as the array of efforts that she spearheaded in STEM - most notably helping to promote and diversify NASA. Thank you Nichelle Nichols, for everything you have done. She helped to change the world.

Nichelle Nichols is an inspiration to all...Best Documentary film...very captivating

I allowed my 8th grade Science and high school Astronomy Students to view this incredible movie! It will become a staple in my class from now on. To say Nichelle Nichols is inspiring is an understatement! One of the best documentaries I have ever had the privilege to see and share with students.
