There are champions we all know, like writer and activist Maya Angelou, but there are dozens of leaders whose inspirational stories are widely unknown. In this second installment of Young Trailblazers, get familiar with even more Black heroes and overcomers. Take an educational trip through time and read stories about those who persevered in the face of adversity. Learn about Nance Legins-Costley, a slave whose freedom was won in the Supreme Court by Abraham Lincoln twenty years before the Civil War. Take a trip to the stars with Guion Bluford Jr., the first Black American to go to space. Feel inspired by Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first Black female physician in the United States. Experience significant moments often left out of textbooks and celebrate the heroic accounts of Black leaders that changed the course of history. From Black scientists and inventors to Black heroes and overcomers, this fun second installment of Young Trailblazers highlights these great leaders' efforts while teaching young readers the importance of celebrating inclusion and diversity.
