Althea Gibson was a pioneering figure who shattered racial, gender, and class barriers as the first African American to compete at the highest levels of tennis and golf. In 1956, she became the first person of color to win a Grand Slam title, paving the way for future generations of athletes. Overcoming intense racial discrimination, she won 11 major tennis titles, including Wimbledon and the U.S. Nationals, transforming into a courageous icon for the civil rights movement.
