Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !
Bessie Coleman was the first Black Woman to gain a pilot's license.
Rejected by American schools for training to become a pilot, she learned French and went to France to get the first international pilot's license issued to any American. She returned to the United States to spread the idea that the sky should never be the limit for African Americans.
