Before Bessie Coleman blazed a high trail with her plane. Before
she was performing death-defying flying shows, that would earn her
fame as, 'Queen Bess.' Before she traveled the country speaking out
against discrimination. Bessie was a little girl with a big
imagination that took her to the sky, through the clouds, and past
the birds. Knocking down barriers, one by one, Bessie endured
racism and grueling training to become the first female
African-American pilot, and an inspiration to Mae Jemison,
Josephine Baker, and many more influential people of color for
years to come.
