KEY POINTS

Captain Teresa Claiborne, a true pioneer, recently landed her final flight after 43 incredible years in the sky.

She wasn’t just any pilot; she was the first black woman to fly in the U.S. Air Force!

Imagine starting your career in a time when the Air Force was only training 10 women per year. Claiborne’s courage and determination paved the way for countless women who followed in her footsteps. Her legacy is a shining example of what’s possible when we challenge the status quo.

Rabbi Gaines and Patricia Wu want you all learn a thing or two from Captain Claiborne’s story.

Even when faced with challenges, we have the power to make a real difference.

Whether it’s speaking up for what’s right or working towards a better future, each of us can create positive change.

So, the next time you feel hesitant to step out of your comfort zone, remember Captain Claiborne. Let her story be your inspiration to be brave, pursue your dreams, and leave your own mark on the world.
