Bessie Coleman: The First Black Female Pilot Ever! (Unique Coloring)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- www.uniquecolo... - In this episode of Unique Coloring, Daniel J. Middleton draws and discusses Bessie Coleman, the first black female pilot ever who barnstormed across America doing air shows in the 1920s. Being a black female pilot at the time was extremely rare, since air shows predominately featured white males. Along with being an aerobatic pilot, Bessie Coleman also parachuted for large crowds and gave motivational speeches at black schools and churches.
This Bessie Coleman biography features me drawing another grayscale coloring page for my black history adult coloring book.

American Airlines just put together a trip with Bessie’s Niece on board, Celebrating Queen Bess’s Accomplishments! My Wife Mary and her Friend, with over 108 years of flying behind them, were honored to be a part of an all-Black FEMALE crew working every aspect of the flight. Blessed to witness this Historic Event! Nothing But Love
I appreciate you sharing this, Robert! That is great news. Wonderful way to celebrate Bessie's legacy.
Absolutely. Amazing 👑👑👑👑👑
That's pretty cool
I had never heard of her in my life. What made me search for her was because of a little girl's project was denied by her teacher. Bessie Coleman was an amazing lady.
Wow! Today's educational curriculum would NEVER allow any awesome little girls know of this story.. So sad.
I love this woman! Born on January 26th, my birthday, makes her an adventurous Aquarius! I had never heard her name before but everyone SHOULD know her name and story. I am so glad there is the flight school named after her--quite a legacy. What a brave and daring soul!
So glad you liked this video as well. Sadly, the Bessie Coleman flight school started by William J. Powell closed due to hardships brought on by the Great Depression. Bessie still left a wonderful and lasting legacy, however.
My uncle Ed birthday 1/26 happy birthday 2 all 3 of u
This female's history is amazing - no one could keep her down. I am glad I found out about her because I have never heard of her story.
Thank you for creating this video. I've been on a search for more information about Bessie Coleman.
Excellent coverage! Another factual hidden gem of how fearless, passionate, and driven African-American women proves time and time again! Thank you for that reminder! 🙏🏽
What a Great Story about this Black Aviator. She was fearless and determined to fly.
What is "black aviation"? If aviation is anyone's, it's firmly a Caucasian phenomenon and you are all passengers. ❤
IT SHOWS THAT NO MATTER WHAT COLOR ARE RACE YOU ARE YOU CAN BECOME ANYTHING YOUR HEART DESIRES ❤
Yes!!!
Thank You! Thank for your reading and research which enlightens So Many of us.
I think I learned so much about Ancestor Bessie.
I knew not much more than her name and that she was a woman pilot.
Your excellent endeavors replenish the Soul.
Give Thanks.
I have been watching RUclips for years and until yesterday, your videos never appeared in my algorithm! I have a list of Black Heros that I look at each day for inspiration and Bessie Coleman is one of these figures. Thanks for creating these necessary videos, showing us that there is so much to be proud of as a race who contributed and sacrificed their lives for this country.
I hear you, Alice. Looks like the algorithm is finally kicking in for more and more people, even though these videos have existed for a while now. Only took three years! LOL. 😝 So happy to hear your report. And I'm even more thrilled about how inspired you are by content like this!
Thank you so very much for this wonderful story about Betsy cold Men A brave tenacious incredibly courageous black woman a sister who was there and created and try to make our dreams come true and in any way she actually did even afterher terrible death.
Her accomplishments will continue to inspire fururec black people men & WOMEN in aviation history but also space history as well.
May her soul and spirit live on into the future.
An amazing fellow Aquarian. I'm from Chicago & one of the local museums are doing a tribute to her.
Amazing story of courage and determination. Well done!
Thank you so much for highlighting this hero.
Bessie Coleman video is inspiring to me and other young women. I'm not too young to learn RIP ♥️😇🙏
That's the spirit, always remember you are SOMEONE OF IMPORTANCE!
Thanks for mentioning Amelia, I was wondering if they knew of each other
Bessie was something else. Proud Chicago was a part of her life and we learned her story early. Usually drive down Bessie Coleman Drive to get to O'hare
She even inspires me @ 61 soon to be 62
Yes, Indeed!
This is American history and should be included in all Schools. Smh. One Love
Thank you for all your videos. I am learning information I wish I knew before. Please bring more unknown Black people to our counsiness.
Bessie Coleman, Ty, for breaking that barrier over 100 years ago, ty for being first to inspire and sail to sky for all African Americans ma'am, may you forever be remember at the greatest to our community and may you rest in peace, sorrow in the sky's 🙏
Salute to her hardworking attitude. Take a bow.
Awesome❤
You just got a new Sub from out of Cincinnati, Ohio.
Keep spreading and growing knowledge.
Much love. ✊🏾
I aim to. And thanks for the sub!
❤❤❤❤ Awesome 😎👍
Awesome video, well done!
I saw a US Coin and wondered, Now I’m here. Glad I am This was super inspiring 💯
So only blk men had other things to worry about? Blk women and blk girls were in constant danger as well.
Thank you because I was like wtf?!?
I caught that line as well. I felt a bit of "shade" in that one.
Also the statement that most black men didn't have pilot licenses? Most white men didn't have pilot licenses as well. And most black men and white men today don't have pilot licenses. Add most black white asian and Hispanic women don't have pilot licenses today and back then.
From the cotton fields
she saw the birds flying
and she figured she could
fly too
she was no cursed child
in books, she found her
wings and like icarus
she found her warmth
in the sun
though white men, even
black, told her " no"
the spirit of harriet
tubman
said " yes "
and the aquarian found
her destiny
in patis, they welcomed
blacks with open arms
there, a black bird could
fly free, and so you
got you license
you saw trees
but they were only home
to bird
and gave birth to dreams
you were no cursed child
you were brave enough to
defy gravity
like icarus, you never feared
fire
only the warmth of flames
you would step on the wings
as you soared, only to touch god
you never feared the
sun
somewhere, you are still flying
you a a black bird
and the skies are owned
by no one
you are beyond icarus, touching
the face of destiny
You are a black bird, not a cursed child
e.g.k. 2'20'22
This is well crafted, you have a talent hidden in the words, I hope you discover it fully
Keep Flying Queen Bessie ❤
Beautiful and very inspiring. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
WOW!!!
@@alicemcleod6149 Thank you 🙂
I was surprised to learn that I am a 4th cousin of Bessie. She descends from my great grandfather's brother's line - white family of German origin - not sure how considering the times would have prohibited marriage.
That is fascinating! Thanks for sharing that wonderful history here!
Three things I always wanted to do and her Story inspired me as a kid to Fly. Thank you for the Story and the Facts .
I would have loved to have met such a brave, bold woman.
I'd love to hear your thoughts. What do you think about Bessie Coleman's life and legacy? Or just share your general comments on what you saw in the video. And if you want to get your hands on the two coloring pages I was working on, click the link in the description above.
I think it's a great story. Millions of us had to go through struggles like that regardless of our ethnic background or gender. I find it interesting that it was her own family to try to discourage her the most and said you're not ever going to fly. I experienced the same thing , your own family trying to hold you back.
Plenty of stories in the Bible about that happening as well
She was the GOAT!
I knew something of her. This was an excellent presentation, Since I was schooled in the 60s and 70s, we were only taught of Earhart. What's criminal about that is that Bessie Coleman probably inspired Earhart.
Unbelievable courage to move beyond the anti black culture. She didn’t travel to a different state, she moved to different country, no money no connections and succeed. Tremendous, history books should have a chapter dedicated to Bessie Coleman.
How did she move to another country with no money?
I love bessie coleman becauseg she was the first black female Love you
'What A Lady'.
Always my shero. I'm sure Threresa Claiborne was inspired by her as well. Theses ladies are inspiring no question.

That’s what’s up 😊😊😊❤
Awesome
Well y'all negated that she was also the first Native American woman to earn her license
And apparently the first white woman as well, has someone else left a comment here who said he's related to her and he's from German ancestry
I didn't know her Native American ancestry, can you share what it was here?
The fact that my teacher’s name is Mrs.Coleman
If this question is not too personal, what inspired you to do research and create these informative and we'll developed videos? These videos should be developed into educational series. You should CONNECT with International African American Museum which opened in June 2023. Seriously, you need to put these videos in a series and give more access where people view these little masterpieces of a person who cares about history.
The subjects themselves inspired me, and the rich heritage that is linked directly to me. I can certainly attempt to reach out as you suggest. Not sure how far that will go. Thanks for the thoughtful suggestion.
@@UniqueColoring No, you must have confidence, I am telling you these videos are too precious to sit on a channel like you. Tell you what, I am inspired and I will reach out to the museum. I won't mention your name but I want to see if there is a place for these kind of videos. I will let you know how it turns out. I think it is very EXCITING!!
That is wonderful, Alice! I'll wait to hear back from you. Very exciting indeed!
@@UniqueColoring Yes, very exciting, your videos should be seen by everyoe. I told me my mother about you and she thinks it is a great idea. it will take some time but I think it is definitely worth a try!
However long it takes keep me posted. And thanks for spreading the word!
Wow

😂oh hell no😂
Do you mean the landing skid and no steering wheel? That was Not Unusual and typical of most planes back then, and many today. It's called stick and rudder and personally I prefer it over the so-called steering wheel type which is actually called a yoke.
Not sure what he meant when he said a stick instead of a steering wheel was makeshift, that's the way they were designed and it's a good design to this day
Much love Russia 🇷🇺 tustkki Alabama
Yes, My Name Is Christele Augustin, I'm Bessie Coleman, That How It Goes For Black Female In Black History Month, That's What Happen And Guess What I Still Look The Same, Thanks
.thank you. AYJR.
So you know well HalleluYah Glory!😊
she was a light woman of mixed race not black.
Her mother was African American her father had Choctaw ancestry. You see how she was treated. She had to leave the US to get a pilot license because BLACK people (including "Mixed") were not allowed to.
@@queenofsheba7145wasn't she also white? Why leave that out? Someone else left a comment here that they were directly related to them through the German ancestry in their family
Remove that German ancestry and Bessie Coleman doesn't exist
People was so low down, putting in the airplane so it would fall to the ground and kill the woman, and for what?
They killed her because she had planned on starting an aviation school for African Americans. They didn't want that to happen. Just plain evil.
Where did it say that?
It says that a loose wrench Jam the controls so that the pilot couldn't correct the aircraft and save it
Did it say that somebody deliberately did that to sabotage the aircraft and kill both pilots?
PRAISE KING JESUS IM ABLE TO START MY OWN AIRPLANE COMPANY BECAUSE OF 👑QUEEN BESSIE l ❤ HER SOO MUCH THOSE RACIST PEOPLE KILLED OUR QUEEN WITH THAT WRENCH IN THE ENGINE AND JESUS SAID VENGEANCE IS MINE I SHALL REPAY🙂
Am I missing something? Where did the video say that a racist put that wrench in their to make the aircraft crash with both a white pilot and a mixed race pilot?
I don't know about you, but I have put things down and got distracted and couldn't find them again,, only to discover them much later in the weirdest of places
Bessie herself or the other pilot could have left the tool there themselves and forgotten!
I just read of a helicopter crash that happened because an iPad came loose fell on the floor and slid underneath a Rudder pedal
That's a sad world view for everything that happens and every rock you turn over has a racist underneath it
Much Russia t50 program and success 👨🏿🌾👩🏿🌾👩🏿🌾👩🏿🌾👩🏿🌾👩🏿🌾👩🏿🌾👨🏿🎓👩🏿🎓👨🏿🎓👨🏿🎓👩🏿🎓👩🏿🎓💂🏿♀️💂🏿♀️💂🏿♀️💂🏿♀️💂🏿♀️💂🏿♀️💂🏿♀️
I know I can't change this Black glorifying narrative of past and present, It will be best for the sake of humanity to just tell the legacy made by these great people to their community and the world. I strongly believe all these stories about Black individual achievement wouldn't be possible if the heroes were race minded type of individual, This fact which i strongly believe is true your channel the likes will have greater impact in the world if it will narrate commoners who made an impact to the community and the world without regarding race. Bring to the viewers table something of a Tennis game where individuals of all nations are well come to perform. Your story depicts the nature of human being by the California authority at the time. To me those white men by God willing are in paradise. We as humans should glorify their willing to put their lives and family in fetal danger at the time of augur well ruling. We now have white African who are oftentimes miss interpreted miss treated and sometimes killed. Yet they are Africans because Africa is the name of the continent nothing to do with race.
A loose wrench my behind.
Yeah that sounded kind of weird didn't it? What do you think happened?
On the other hand it's not impossible, it could have fallen into an area that blocked the control input the pilot was trying to execute
I saw a video recreating how a helicopter crashed, and it was because an iPad had come loose, fell on the floor and slid underneath one of the rudder pedals
The pilot needed to depress that particular Rudder pedal to correct and control the aircraft, but the iPad was blocking it which made him push even more, which firmly pushed the iPad and held it in position even more, so he wasn't able to correct the aircraft and it crashed
So yes a loose wrench left in the cockpit can cause death
And I can see how that could happen especially back then when even the best experts pilots and designers were still learning and gaining experience on all the different things that can fail in cause accidents
😣😓😔😌🥰🤩🏆
Almost sounds like her death was staged. Then, in an attempt to make this look like an accident you plunges into a spiral, but then loses control of the plane himself. America was not ready for people of color to do the things that she was trying to do at that time. It’s a tragedy.America is the only nation that I am aware of that kills its own.😢
I wouldn't jump to conclusions, watch all the many videos on here about the many many many many many many many many many plane crashes overtime and how they figured out what caused it
It's even more likely then what you think, that somebody did accidentally leave a tool in the cockpit or somewhere else, got distracted and forgot about it. Or they could have put it in a place where they thought it would be secure and didn't realize that it could fall out get into the controls and stick
I learned that this just happened in a helicopter accident, an iPad came loose fell on the floor and slid underneath the Rudder pedal and in the same way block the pilot from being able to correct the aircraft
If you want to judge and blame everything on a dubious motive, you can make up all kinds of stuff.
The possibilities are endless
"First black female pilot....."
".....ended as one would expect." 😂😂
And yet she still was light years better than all the weak failed BM who were being dominated and hung by WM on a daily basis.
Huh?
She was light skin not dark
100 mixed white German and someone else said Choctaw Indian.
Without either of those Bessie doesn't exist. Am I wrong?
She was not an African
💯
