From the cotton fields of remote Texas village to the aviation school in France, Bessie Coleman’s extraordinary story is riven with struggles, poverty, rejections, and racism. Buy the book to know how Bessie Coleman, a pioneer aviator who survived segregation, traveled hundreds of miles away from her home and defied all racial prejudices to conquer the skies, at a time when a Black woman didn’t dare to dream.
