Story0
Bereits als kleiner Junge träumt Cristoforo davon, zur See zu fahren und Abenteuer in der Ferne zu erleben. Dass aus dem Sohn eines italienischen Wollwebers tatsächlich der Admiral des Weltmeeres wird, grenzt an ein Wunder. Genau wie das, was er im Herbst 1492 erlebt, als nach einem kräfteraubenden Monat auf dem Atlantik der Ruf "Land in Sicht!" vom Krähennest der Santa Maria herunter schallt: Kolumbus hat zwar keine neue Schiffsroute nach Indien gefunden, sondern einen für die Europäer damals unbekannten Kontinent.

From a very young age, Judy Heumann heard the word NO. When she wanted to attend public school, the principal said NO. When she wanted her teaching license, the New York Board of Education said NO. Judy and people with disabilities everywhere were tired of hearing “NO”. In the 1970s, an important disability rights law, Section 504 of The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, was waiting to be signed. Judy and other disability rights activists held a sit-in until Section 504 was signed into law, laying the foundation for the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Born into slavery, Rebecca Crumpler became the first Black female physician in America. Stuntwoman Bessie Coleman was the first Black person in the world to obtain a pilot's license. The work of Harlem Renaissance sculptor Selma Burke can be found on the American dime. The calculations of NASA mathematician Katherine Goble Johnson were critical to the success of US manned spaceflight. These Black women and many more overcame tremendous obstacles and prejudices to make their mark on American history.
