Bessie Coleman studiedaviation and became the first African American woman to earn a pilot's license. She pursued her education at the Chicago-based Burnham School of Aeronautics and later traveled to France to obtain her license in 1921, as no American flight schools would admit her due to her race and gender. Coleman's passion for flying and her determination to break racial and gender barriers inspired her to promote aviation among African Americans.
