  • Resumen


  • In 1950, Willie Thrower made history as the first Black quarterback to start a game for the Chicago Bears. Nearly two decades later, Marlin Briscoe took the field as the starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos, leading the team for an entire season.Over time, players like Warren Moon and Michael Vick became the faces of major NFL franchises, proving that Black quarterbacks could lead and excel at the highest levels.

    Their success on the field helped break barriers beyond sports, paving the way for future generations—including Barack Obama, who would go on to make history as the first Black President of the United States.The impact of these trailblazers extends far beyond football. Their resilience and achievements challenged outdated norms, opening doors for change in sports, politics, and society as a whole.
