The courageous actions of Claudette Colvin (1939-2026), who died at 86, were often overlooked despite her pivotal role in the civil rights movement. In 1955, at age 15, she refused to give up her seat on a segregated bus in Montgomery, nine months before Rosa Parks. Colvin, who was born in Birmingham, Alabama, became one of the plaintiffs in the landmark case Browder v. Gayle that led to the end of bus segregation. Though Parks would become the face of the boycott, Colvin’s action made her one of the youngest people to publicly challenge Jim Crow laws.
In 2020, French became the first woman selected to serve as Presiding Judge in Jefferson County’s 200-year history. She oversees the 10th Judicial Circuit, the largest in Alabama’s Judicial System. French was first elected as a Jefferson County Circuit Court Judge in November of 2010. She was re-elected in 2016. During her tenure on the bench, French, who earned her juris doctorate from Samford University’s Cumberland School of Law in 1997, has disposed of thousands of cases.
On January 26, 2005, Condoleezza Rice was sworn in as U.S. secretary of state, becoming the highest-ranking African American woman to serve in a presidential cabinet. A native of Birmingham, Alabama, Rice earned advanced degrees in political science and international relations and later served as provost of Stanford University. Known for her expertise in Soviet affairs, she worked with the Council on Foreign Relations and served as special assistant to the director of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. She later held roles on the National Security Council and became national security advisor under George W. Bush before her appointment as secretary of state.
Congresswoman Sewell is serving her eighth term representing Alabama’s 7th Congressional District. She made history as one of the first women elected to Congress from Alabama and the first Black woman ever to serve in the state’s congressional delegation.
On May 6, 2025, Ciara Smith-Roston made history as the City of Anniston’s first African American mayor, only the second woman to hold the office, and, at 26, its youngest ever. Smith became the youngest elected official in Anniston’s history in November 2020, when she was elected to the council and later named vice mayor – all by the age of 21. She served as vice mayor for nearly 5 years and assumed her current role after former mayor Jack Draper resigned after 8 years in office.
Born in Mobile, Alabama, Laverne Cox made history by becoming the first openly transgender person to be nominated for an Emmy. Cox attended high school at the Alabama School of Fine Arts in Birmingham before studying at Indiana University in Bloomington and Marymount Manhattan College, from which she graduated with a BFA in dance. Cox later worked in TV, including Law & Order episodes and the reality show TRANSform Me, before her breakout role on the Netflix series Orange Is the New Black. Cox has continued to be an advocate for trans and LGBT rights while appearing in additional screen projects such as The Mindy Project, Doubt and Grandma.
A graduate of Florida A&M University’s School of Journalism & Graphic Communication, Thai Floyd made history in 2025 when she was named the lead play-by-play voice of Alabama A&M University football and host of “The Coaches Show.” She is the first woman to hold this role at Alabama A&M and the first woman to serve as the full-time voice of a historically Black college or university (HBCU) football team.
Corietta Mitchell was the first Black artist to have an exhibition at the Birmingham Museum of Art. The museum was established in 1951 during the height of Jim Crow laws, which mandated segregation in public venues. Black patrons were only allowed to visit the museum one day a week. But in March 1963, four months before Birmingham officially repealed segregation laws, the museum’s founding director, Richard Howard, accorded a one-woman show to Mitchell, who was a leader of Birmingham’s Black Art Club. Also, an educator and classically trained pianist, Mitchell was a major figure in the Birmingham art scene at that time. Her exhibition drew more than 600 people and made headlines across Alabama.
Regina Benjamin, MD, was the 18th United States Surgeon General (2009-2013). As America’s Doctor, she provided the public with scientific information to improve the health of the nation. Dr. Benjamin also oversaw the operational command of 6,500 uniformed public health officers who serve in locations around the world to promote and protect the health of Amerricans. From her early days as the founder of a rural health clinic in Alabama to her leadership role in the worldwide advancement of preventive health, Dr. Benjamin has had a special interest in rural health care, health disparities among socio-economic groups, suicide, violence, and mental health.
In 1941, Mildred Hemmons Carter (1921-2011) became the first Black woman in Alabama to earn a pilot’s license through the Civilian Pilot Training Program. She was also the first Black female pilot in Alabama. Born in Benson, Alabama, she attended Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University) and graduated with Tuskegee’s first class of CPTP trainees and on February 1, 1941. She also received her private pilot’s certificate which made her the first female pilot in Alabama.
Born in Shiloh, Alabama, Autherine Lucy Foster played a pivotal role in desegregating the University of Alabama. Admitted in 1952, her acceptance was rescinded when officials learned she was Black. With support from the NAACP and attorney Thurgood Marshall, she sued the university for racial discrimination and won a 1955 court order allowing her to enroll. In February 1956, Lucy became the first Black student to attend a previously all-white public university in Alabama, marking a major step toward desegregation. Though riots forced her withdrawal, her case helped open the university to students of all races.
Jones became the first Black student to graduate from the University of Alabama on May 30, 1965. Despite being an exceptional high school student and member of the National Honor Society, she was one of several Black students to have their applications rejected from UA because of “class size” and “enrollment” issues. Along with another Black student, James Hood, Malone Jones and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund filed suit against UA for denying entry to Black students. A district judge ruled in favor of the pair entering the university, but was blocked by then-governor George Wallace in the infamous “Stand in the Schoolhouse Door” event. Wallace made a political stand and kept his promise to uphold segregation in the state, using the now infamous slogan of “Segregation Now, Segregation Forever.” Only after federalized guard troops arrived, four and a half hours after Wallace’s initial refusal, were the students admitted. After graduating from Alabama, Jones worked for the United States Justice Department in its civil rights division. She also worked at the Environmental Protection Agency as director of civil rights and urban affairs and director of environmental justice.
Alice Coachman made history as the first Black woman from any nation to win an Olympic gold medal. Born in Albany, Georgia, she drew national attention while competing for her high school track team and was later recruited by Tuskegee Institute. Enrolling in 1943 to study dressmaking, she also starred on the school’s track and basketball teams, winning four national titles in sprinting and the high jump. At the 1948 Summer Olympics in London, Coachman won gold in the high jump, setting an Olympic record by clearing 5 feet 6⅛ inches on her first attempt. George VI presented her medal. With this medal, Coachman became not only the first Black woman to win Olympic gold, but the only American woman to win a gold medal at the 1948 Olympic Games.
In 2002, Vonetta Flowers became the first Black athlete to win a gold medal in the Winter Olympics. Previously a sprinter and long jumper at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Flowers later turned to bobsledding and, at the 2002 Winter Olympics, she was the brakeman for Jill Bakken, as they won the gold medal in the first women’s Olympic bobsled event. In 2003, she returned to competition with new driver Jean Racine-Prahm. Flowers and Racine-Prahm competed in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, finishing sixth, and together they also won a bronze medal at the 2004 World Championships. Vonetta Flowers retired from competition after the 2006 Winter Olympics.
University of Alabama gymnastics standout Dee Foster was a 17-time All-American, four-time SEC champion and NCAA all-around champion and made history as the program’s first African American gymnast and the first-ever rookie to win SEC Female Athlete of the Year. Foster, who competed at Alabama from 1990-93, was also the first Alabama gymnast to score a perfect 10 before going on to set an NCAA record in 1993 with a perfect 10 in five consecutive meets. Two years ago, she was selected for the 2024 Southeastern Conference Women’s Legends class.
