Mr. Temple and the Tigerbelles 2018

Directed by Thomas L. Neff

The Tigerbelles, coached by the legendary, irascible Mr. Temple, were a group of African American female track athletes who broke the color barrier of the Olympics in the 1950s and '60s, winning 16 gold medals, over 30 national titles, and 100 percent of them received college degrees, all during the Jim Crow era.
