What
First Ladies of African American History
In the city of St. Petersburg and the broader Bay area, numerous Black women have risen as trailblazers, shattering barriers to claim the title of “first” in their respective fields. Since the inception of the First Ladies in African American History celebration in 2014, The Woodson African American Museum of Florida has embraced the responsibility of documenting these groundbreaking achievements. In this pursuit, the museum not only honors these trailblazers but also passionately celebrates the brilliance of women who have etched their names into the annals of history.
2024 Winnie Foster Lifetime Achievement Award
Winnie Foster was a local hero in our community who championed countless causes including social justice and reform until her passing in 2023. Her commitment to racial equality inspired The Woodson to commemorate her legacy by creating an award in her honor.
