During World War II, the only US Women's Army Corps unit of color stationed overseas took on an impossible mission.

The Six Triple Eight, starring Kerry Washington and directed by Tyler Perry, is now playing.

https://x.com/netflix/status/1870091786363761075

When America needed hope, they delivered. The Six Triple Eight, starring Kerry Washington, premieres December 20.

https://x.com/netflix/status/1828824936351232369

The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, nicknamed the "Six Triple Eight", was a predominantly Black battalion of the US Women's Army Corps (WAC)[1] that managed postal services. The 6888th had 855 women and was led by Major Charity Adams.[2] It was the only predominantly Black US Women's Army Corps unit sent overseas during World War II.[2] The group motto was "No mail, low morale".[3] The battalion was organized into five companies: Headquarters, and Companies A, B, C, and D.[4] Most of the 6888th worked as postal clerks, but others were cooks, mechanics and held other support positions, so that the 6888th was a self-sufficient unit.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6888th_Central_Postal_Directory_Battalion

They were literally mail sorters.

This is one of Tyler Perry's MANY films directed and produced by the very same culture that endured the hardships of Racial America so they can teach the world how Black Female Americans made a difference! BRAVO! Anyone giving less than 5 stars doesn't realize the basic importance of how long this story has been hidden and why it is so important that America understands who Black American Women truly are and what they sacrificed for our country. We are all in this together.

I wont have to listen to "what if the negresses fought other negresses in a different fictional universe" discussions anywhere.

For me, negresses sorting mail >>>>> capeshit

They were based in England in 1945. It'd be like running the cafeteria in the Ramstein Air Base c. 2006.

I know nothing about this movie outside of whats in this thread, but Im going to agree. There probably arent many places where black women are featured in stories about ww2. If its a true story and they did a good job, let them tell the story. Who gives a shit? This movie isnt for the people on xo. Its for black women.

it's annoying that every minority in history is lauded as being some unsung hero for doing mediocre shit. like the claim latimer invented the lightbulb and evil white man edison stole it.

but this type of shit is way down on the list of "annoying kike shit media companies do", so who gives a fuck. and even if they embellish their heroism, it's not much different than oppenheimer or any other hollywoodified biopic. it's just annoying that it's transparently done because of race in this case.

I get your point. But think of it this way- "they" are going to make X number of movies per year targeted at this demographic. Wouldnt you rather have it be a historical story about women doing something good/brave during ww2 instead of some ridiculous reboot like ghostbusters or more cape shit or movies pushing ultra shitlib agendas?

As the 6888th got to work clearing 17 million pieces of mail, they were forced to endure extremely grim conditions in cold, dirty, rat-infested warehouses which they operated out of.

There were no heaters, either, so the battalion were forced to wear ski pants and big jackets to survive the hellish, wintry conditions, plus they had to shower outside, even in the dead of winter. Blackout conditions were also imposed to hide the group from German forces, which led to eye strain for many who worked in near darkness.

But before they admirably completed their task ahead of schedule, a white male general paid the 6888th a visit, and he still found their efforts lacking. Angered that a third of the women were sleeping upon his arrival, the general told Adams that he would send a white lieutenant to come and show her how to do her job properly. The major's response? "Over my dead body, sir."

"Adams was 26 years old at the time," Washington told us. "Even though she believed so deeply in the rules and codes of the Army, she betrayed her own belief system to say to her superior officer, a general in the army, 'Over my dead body.'

In one memorable scene, women of the 6888th heroically cancelled mail that had been improperly fed through machines in the United States, preventing the possible fraudulent reuse of millions of stamps.

"I grabbed an ink pad and personally cancelled about 20,000 letters that night," said Sgt. Keisha Jackson. "My hands were numb and the lights went out, but I kept cancelling letters until the medics dragged me away," she added.

Jackson, the recipient of a Bronze Star for gallantry in postage-related duty, returned to Georgia after the war, spending 46 years as a grocery store cashier.
