In Tuskegee Airmen's black history lesson, students urged to overcome discrimation
Army veterans Dabney N. Montgomery and William DeFour fought during World War II as members of the Tuskegee Airmen, black aviation personnel whose success helped end segregation in the U.S. military. Speaking to elementary school students in New York on Friday during a Black History Month program, they urged members of a fifth-grade class not to allow discrimination to dissuade them from success.
