This is the first section of something new where I place a link to lesser known or underrated black figures in history who should be recognized for their achievements. First on the list is none other than: Robert Smalls. Smalls was an enslaved African American who managed to steal a lightly armed military transport freeing himself as well as other slaves in the process. After a successful escape; Robert, eventually became a politician, ran for congress, and won. Checkout the details of this man's life in the link below for more info:
