Bessie Coleman
While Amelia Earhart is better known, Bessie Coleman was a pioneer in her own right: the first black woman to earn an international pilot's license. Bessie was born in 1892 in a one-room cabin in Atlanta, Texas, and from the time she was two, she was raised in Waxahachie, Texas.
While most people think of Amelia Earhart, there were actually other female pilots before her. The first woman that we know about to earn a pilot's license was Harriet Quimby, back in 1911. And the first African-American woman to earn a pilot's license was Bessie Coleman, in 1922.
Amelia first flew in an aircraft in 1920 and flew her first solo in 1921.
Amelia was not black. The first black female aviator was Bessie Coleman ( 1892 -1926 ) She had to go to France to get flying lessons due to colour prejudice in the USA in the 1920's. She became a famous exhibition flyer and toured the states, but America was not ready for black pilots, let alone female black pilots. Sadly, Bessie died in an aviation accident in 1926.

Bessie Coleman was born to George Coleman and Susan Coleman. Her father was of African American descent, while her mother was of Native American and African American ancestry. Bessie faced significant challenges due to her family's financial situation and the racial barriers of her time, but she became a pioneering aviator and the first African American woman to hold a pilot's license.
Bessie Coleman never attended UCLA. She was the first African American woman to earn a pilot's license, achieving this milestone in 1921. Coleman pursued her education at various institutions, including the University of California, but she is primarily known for her aviation accomplishments rather than her academic affiliations.
Amelia Earhart was influenced by aviation pioneer Mary Pickford, who helped her secure funding for flying lessons and encouraged her to pursue a career in aviation. Earhart was also inspired by the achievements of other female aviators such as Harriet Quimby and Bessie Coleman.
