If you're ever granted the opportunity to see the Sequoia Trees, you can thank Charles Young, the first Black colonel in the U.S. Army and fierce protector of the great Sequoias.

Despite racial animosity, Young became the first Black national park superintendent managing what is now Sequoia National Park.

He made history at a time when the achievements of Black Americans were often erased from the record.
