#MaryFields aka #StagecoachMary was hired as a mail carrier because she was the fastest applicant to hitch a team of six horses.
She was the first black woman employed as a mail carrier in the US & the second woman to work for the US Postal Service. Stay Locked & Loaded Like Mary #WomensHistoryMonth
we celebrate the trailblazing Black cowgirls who redefined the American frontier with exceptional talent. #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackCowgirls #Trailblazers #WildWestLegends #EmpoweredWomen #HonoringHeritage #MaryFields #StagecoachMary #SylviaRideouttBishop #JaDayiaKursh #NellieBrown
