Living Voices: Homefront/Warfront (Civil Rights Movement)

February 6, 2025 @ 1:15 pm - 2:15 pm

Who were the real “Rosie the Riveters?” How did Black Americans fight for democracy on two fronts?

Learn the little-known contributions of Black women in World War II aviation, as one trailblazing young pilot flies for Double Victory— championing democracy at home and abroad.

Antoinette and her family join the millions of Black Americans serving their country in the defense industries while bravely confronting racism, sexism and fascism on every front.

Developed in partnership with the Museum of Flight, Museum of History & Industry and The Boeing Company.

Please join us to experience powerful, dynamic live performances, combined with archival film and sound, transforming history into a moving, personal journey.
