From Martin Luther King, Jr. to Barack Obama, from Maya Angelou to Tracy K. Smith, from Aretha Franklin to Kendrick Lamar, from Katherine Johnson to Mae Jemison, and from Jesse Owens to Allyson Felix, African American icons have led the way for the next generation in arts & music, civic leadership, literature, science, and sports. QPL wants to know how you or someone you know has been inspired by any African American trailblazer to carry on their legacy. What have you done or do you plan to do that will advance their achievements? Share your story with us for a chance to win a Black History book bundle!
