Black Wings tells the story of how one group of Americans overcame enormous obstacles to break into aviation. African Americans shared the universal dream of flight. But for almost 50 years after the Wright brothers’ historic flight in 1903, racial discrimination denied black Americans access to this important sphere of technology.
