Blue Skies, Black Wings

African American Pioneers of Aviation

Omschrijving

Covers the history of African Americans in the skies from the very beginnings of manned flight. From Charles Wesley Peters, who flew his own plane in 1911, to the 1945 Freeman Field mutiny against segregationist policies in the Air Corps, this work paints a vivid picture of the people who fought oppression to make the skies their own.
