Nice

American Airlines ✈️ honored Bessie Coleman, the first Black woman to earn a pilot's license 100 years ago, with a flight operated entirely by Black women, from maintenance crew to the all female crew from Dallas to Phoenix. ❤️

This is special, this is newsworthy.

11. I would feel so safe on that flight.

Because I know how hard they all worked to get where they are, and how hard they have to continue to work to be considered the best in their profession.

15. Whereas Charlie Kirk ...

… lionized as a beacon of truth and realism among the right, would have been scared to death to board such a flight. Charlie Kirk was still is an asshole.

17. Last year...

I flew to the east coast for the eclipse and while I was spending an inordinate length of time in a major airport, I saw one particular crew of five or six, pilots and uniformed air crew, all women, one was white. I hope I didn't look like I was staring but I watched as they passed by out in the corridor, they were happy and laughing together. Made me feel good inside, like I had been part of the beginning of women in "male" occupations/professions. I hoped they would fly my flights at some point, or others like them.

23. So weird to think pilots have been getting licenses for more than 100 years

I mean it makes sense, but I never thought about it until I saw she received her license that long ago.
