Factual error: The Six Triple Eight depicted has officers and privates but no NCOs whatsoever. In reality, the battalion had the same complement of corporals and sergeants as any other battalion.
The Six Triple Eight (2024)
Directed by: Tyler Perry
Starring: Kerry Washington, Sam Waterston, Oprah Winfrey, Dean Norris, Ebony Obsidian
Major Adams: You're not only in the Army, you're women, and you're Negros. And because you're Negros and women you don't have the luxury to be as good as the white soldiers, you have the burden to be better. Remember, you're not only representing America, you're representing the Negros of America.
Abram David: The only eyes that matter are ours.
Major Adams: They're already of the opinion that the Negro woman is dumb, inferior and lazy. And I'll be damned it I allow a woman in my unit to prove them correct!
