Next month, Netflix will debut Perry’s wartime drama “The Six Triple Eight,” starring Kerry Washington. The story follows the war’s only Women’s Army Corps unit of color. Per Tudum:
“The 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion contributed to the war effort in a unique way: by sorting through a three-year backlog of mail (17 million pieces of it!) that hadn’t been delivered to American soldiers far from home. In the face of discrimination and a vast, unfamiliar country divided by global conflict, these 855 women brought hope to the front lines. Given six months to complete the task, the 6888th accomplished their mission in less than 90 days, providing morale when the United States needed it most.”

In a statement on X/Twitter, Perry wrote, “You have no idea what it means to me to have been given the grace and the blessing to be able to tell THIS story! Every detail is dedicated to the memory of the 855 black women and women of color of the Six Triple Eight. When America needed hope, they delivered! ”
“The Six Triple Eight” will debut exclusively on Netflix on Dec. 20. Watch the trailer below.
