Chapter 1: Bessie coleman!

Bessie Coleman was born in 1892 in a small segregated town in Texas. When she was young her brothers who served in world war 1 told her about women flying planes and this made her curious. When she got older she applied to flight schools in the U.S, but couldn’t get in so she moved to France. She learned to fly in 1921 and became the first black women in the world to receive her pilot’s license. She died at the age of 34 in a plane crash but her legacy lives on.
