What amazes me is that the Dem platform and Hillary's position was abortion at ANY TIME during pregnancy, even the 9th month. WOW.

What amazes me PAX is the lengths the Left will go (evidenced in this thread) to defend Abortion=murder.

1) they hardly call it what it is "health care services"
2) they lie about it's frequency & funding
3) they hide aggressive promotion of it by PP
4) they obfuscate the barbaric nature of it
5) they deny their radical support for it
6) they feign indifference over it
7) they pretend it's only used to "save Lives"
8) they refuse to recognize safer alternatives
9) they deny its overt racial disparities
10) they never admit to its immorality

Didn't mean to ignore your post here ex-pat. (had to leave the thread yesterday, and couldn't get back except for a brief response to countryroads89 after 2pm)

To answer your question no, I have not seen either movie. I hear "hidden figures" was awesome. Fences I have not heard as much about (I typically don't watch 1st run movies until they're in rental circulation) but I understand it is a powerful rendition of racial strife and struggle for equality.

Fortunately America has reached a rough consensus on the dignity of all humans regardless of color, although I still think racially we are a divided nation due to Leftist stoking of cultural intolerance.

But we as a nation do agree Blacks and Whites are equal as humans, and just as you said, "Americans" deserving of all Constitutionally protected rights.
Kvb, you should see both movies. Hidden Figures is a very inspiring story with a WVU/WV connection. The main character, Katherine Johnson, is a math genius from WV, gets a Masters in math at WVU and gets hired at NASA as a human calculator, before computers were prevalent. She rises through the ranks and is the only black female in an all white all male group calculating the re-entry protocol for the early Gemini missions. I won't spoil it for you but there is a running event through the first part of the movie that reaches a dramatic point about mid way. It changes the way the rest of the story unfolds.

Fences on the other hand is totally opposite. Denzel plays a character, a Pittsburgh garbage collector, who wants to advance but has issues getting out of his "place". It is a very dark film but has moments where you want to shout at the screen "WTF". Of course this is set in the late 1950s early 1960s (both films are 1960s-ish) and the attitude displayed is nearly incomprehensible to my mind today. It is based on an August Wilson play. Wilson is from the 'Burg.

Fences is out on Pay-per-view right now, haven't seen anything on Hidden Figures. Both worth your time.
