Bessie Coleman, a trailblazing aviator who defied racial and gender barriers to become the first African American woman to hold a pilot's license. Join us as we explore Bessie's humble beginnings in Texas, her determination to overcome obstacles, and her relentless pursuit of a dream that would change aviation history.

From working as a manicurist to save money for flying lessons to traveling to France to earn her pilot's license when no American flight school would admit her, Bessie's story is one of resilience and perseverance. We delve into the challenges she faced in a segregated and male-dominated industry, and how she used her platform to advocate for equality and inspire future generations.
