Queen Bess
When I was in elementary school I read this story about a young Black woman in the early 1900’s who was said to be the first Black American female pilot ever. This was very interesting to me because as much as I was taught the importance of Black history in my house, added to how much my family loved to fly, I had never been taught the history of Black pilots in America, let alone Black female pilots at that. That young Black female pilot who’s history I came to know was Bessie Colman.

Should have been A Cowboy
The first song I ever heard by this Patriotic, redneck of rednecks singer, was “Should have been a Cowboy.” His voice and songs followed my tastes, my mother’s, my father’s, and my grandmother’s, all of us adoring his music. We loved the epitome of country-boy rock. This man was the cornerstone of country music, a royal in the scheme of things, my generation’s version of Hanks WIlliams Jr. At least from my perspective. And today, on February 6th, 2024, I found out that not only was he sick, but he passed away, joining the other great artists beyond the stars.
