Please learn about Unstoppable Robert Smalls. He was a slave but then he freed himself and his family by commandeering a Confederate ship. After awhile he became a member of the House of Representatives. Why he is not in every American history textbook ever written is a mystery.
You are welcome for this information. This information was brought to my attention by a Third Party.
Now you know.
