Little legends : exceptional men in black history / Vashti Harrison ; with Kwesi Johnson.
"Profiles thirty-five prominent men in African American history, including James Armistead Lafayette, Thurgood Marshall, Alvin Ailey, and Leland Melvin. Among these biographies, readers will find aviators and artists, politicians and pop stars, athletes and activists. The legends in this book span centuries and continents, but what they have in common is that each one has blazed a trail for generations to come."-- Provided by publisher.
