Today marks 100 years since Vernon Castlecrashed his airplane in Benbrook on February 15,1918. A small memorial sits at the intersection ofVernon Castle Drive and West Cozby Street tomark the site, nestled under the shadow of a tow-ering water tank. Vernon Castle was born William Vernon Blythin England in 1887 and moved to the United Stateswhere he met his wife Irene in 1910. The Castlesbecame widely-recognized as ballroom dancersand dance instructors. They appeared onBroadway and in silent films, popularizing danceslike the Foxtrot and other ragtime dances. Vernonand Irene Castle were one of the most famousdance couples of the 20th century. When World War 1 broke out in 1914, VernonCastle set aside his touring schedule and trained asa pilot. The Castles performed a farewell show,accompanied by John Phillip Sousa, and Vernonsailed to England to enlist in the Royal FlyingCorp. There he found success as a pilot, achievingthe rank of Captain, and was awarded the Cruix deGuerre. Vernon returned to the U.S. to teach aviationstudents in 1917. As Commander of the 84thCanadian Training Squadron, Royal Flying Corpshe trained Canadian, British and American pilotsat Camp Taliaferro. It was during a training ses-sion at Benbrook Field that Vernon’s life was cutshort.
Eighth-graders Estevan Flores and MiguelRamirez with clinician-conductor Dr. ScottDeppe represented BMHS with their musical tal-ents.
At 10:30 a.m., he and a student were flying aCurtiss Jenny at 75 feet, but had to take emer-gency action to avoid collision with another air-craft. The plane stalled and went down, nose first.Vernon had always made a point of seating his stu-dents in the rear seat for safety. His student and theother pilot were not injured. Vernon, only 30 years old at his death, wasburied in Woodlawn Cemetery in New York. Themonument in Benbrook is a simple concretepylon, topped with a biplane. On two sides of thememorial, a plaque tells a piece of the story. Thethird displays a poem by Ruth E. Finley called “Tothe Fallen Aviator.”

Attorney General Ken Paxton recently intro-duced a new comprehensive training video to edu-cate and mobilize all Texans in the fight againsthuman trafficking. The nearly hour-long videowas developed over the last year by the attorneygeneral’s Human Trafficking/TransnationalOrganized Crime (HTTOC) section and debutedduring a public screening at the Austin ISDPerforming Arts Center. “This remarkable training video represents mydeep conviction to inform, educate and empowerTexans to prevent, recognize and report humantrafficking,” Attorney General Paxton said. “‘Bethe One in the Fight Against Human Trafficking’was created to enlist residents from every walk oflife to help Texas in its nationwide leadership roleto combat and ultimately eliminate this horrificand dehumanizing crime.” Texas is responsible for the nation’s secondhighest number of calls to the National HumanTrafficking Hotline, and recent research indicatesthat at any given time there are more than 300,000victims of human trafficking in the state. At the screening, Attorney General Paxtonannounced that his office is providing the humantrafficking training video to all Texas state agen-cies, with the potential of reaching 315,000 stateemployees. The video is mandatory viewing forthe 4,000 employees of the attorney general’soffice. “I am challenging my fellow state agency
heads to follow suit,” he said. Attorney GeneralPaxton applauded the Texas Department of Familyand Protective Services for being the first stateagency to use the video in the training of all 8,000of its front-line caseworkers. “Be the One in the Fight Against HumanTrafficking” shares the compelling and oftendeeply emotional stories of human traffickingfrom the perspective of survivors, experts, lawenforcement, and good samaritans, including aTexan who helped authorities shut down a majorhuman trafficking operation in his own neighbor-hood of The Woodlands. Launched in January 2016, Attorney GeneralPaxton’s HTTOC section has assisted or consultedon dozens of cases, such as the arrest of the CEOof Backpage.com, whose online “adult” ads werelinked to sex trafficking of women and children. Italso partners with Truckers Against Traffickingand the Texas Trucking Association on an innova-tive public-private-program to put more eyes andears on the road to catch human trafficking. Sinceits inception, HTTOC has provided human traf-ficking awareness training to more than 15,000people across the state of Texas. The training video is available for anyone towatch at www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/human-trafficking.

Bessie Coleman had said as a child that she wanted to make somethingof herself. For an African-American at the turn of the century, there werefew opportunities. With the invention of airplanes, she found her calling asthe first African-American woman to become a pilot. As a famous stunt pilotin the 1920s, she toured the country, and all eyes looked skyward to see herperform.
Coleman was born outside Atlanta, Texas, in January 1892 in a one-roomcabin. She was the 12th of 13 children in a family of sharecroppers. Herfather was part Cherokee and part African-American with her mother a for-mer slave. At the age of two, the family moved to Waxahachie. As a younggirl, she walked four miles to the one-room school where she developed atalent for math. She briefly attended college in Oklahoma before droppingout. In 1916, she moved to Chicago with a couple of her brothers and foundwork as a manicurist.
As World War I progressed, she was mesmerized by the daring tales ofWorld War I fighter pilots that were told by returning veterans. With storiesof women becoming pilots, she began dreaming of her own career as a pilot.Coleman took a second job and started saving her money. Harriet Quimby ofMichigan became the first American woman pilot in 1911, and dozens morefollowed. But there were no opportunities for minority women to even enterflight schools. Friends suggested Coleman take lessons in France.
She left in 1920, and by June 1921, she gained her pilots license, the firstAfrican-American or Native American woman ever to receive a license. Thenews was met with acclaim in the United States. She spent the next yearworking on further training. There were few occupations for pilots at thetime. Military aviation programs were still very small and would not admitwomen. The U. S. Postal Service had its air mail program in effect beforeWorld War I but would not hire women pilots. The major airlines would notbe formed for several more years. Most air travel in the 1920s, in fact, wasby Zeppelin airship rather than airplanes.
The best option, and the most visible, was the air show. Airplanes werenot yet two decades old, and many were fascinated by the new invention andthe sight of death-defying aerial acrobatics. At air shows, pilots would per-
form complicated maneuvers, stuntmen would walk on the wings, and somewould even parachute out of planes.
Coleman toured the country with air shows, billed as “Brave Bessie” or“Queen Bessie.” The plane Coleman used most often was the JN-4 “Jenny”biplane. In 1923, she bough her first plane, but she was seriously injured inan air show when it crashed a few days later. She saved up to buy anotherplane the next year. In the meantime, she continued to tour across the coun-try.
“In the air is the only place free from prejudice,” Coleman often said. Inthe air, pilots can only rely on their training, instincts, and determination,qualities that do not know skin color or gender. She gave presentations atAfrican-American churches and schools, urging others to get involved in avi-ation. She often talked about one day opening a flight school.
In 1926, Coleman was preparing for a performance in Florida. She wasunable to get a plane for the next air show, where she planned a spectacularparachute jump from the plane, and had her publicist and mechanic, WilliamWills, deliver her plane from Dallas. Wills had to land several times forrepairs before arriving. On April 30, she and Wills took off on a test flight.Unknown to either one, a wrench had been left inside the engine assembly.
During the flight, the wrench came loose, damaging the internal controls.The plane suddenly went into an uncontrolled spin, plummeting to theground. Coleman was thrown out of the plane, falling to her death. Willsdied when the plane crashed moments later. The 34-year-old aviation pioneerwas buried in Chicago. The city and aviators alike came to honor her mem-ory in the years afterward. Chicago named a library and a park for her.
Several other cities named streets for her near their airports. TheAerospace Education Foundation in New York offers the Bess ColemanScholarship for students interested in aviation careers. In 1995, the U. S.Postal Service issued a stamp in her honor. The Cedar Hill IndependentSchool District opened Bessie Coleman Middle School in 2006.
Perhaps the most fitting tribute came decades after her death. In 1992,
