In the 1930s and 1940s, a young Black woman named Bessie Stringfield decided she’d strike out on her own and hit the road – and ended up crisscrossing the United States eight times, and becoming the first Black woman to ride a motorcycle through each of the lower 48 states.

Read more about Bessie Stringfield in this Atlas Obscura article by Natalie Zarrelli.
