Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler was the first African American woman in the United States to earn a medical degree.

Dr. Crumpler's journey began in a society where racial and gender inequalities were deeply entrenched. Born in 1831, she faced formidable obstacles as an African American woman aspiring to become a physician. Yet, against all odds, Dr. Crumpler demonstrated extraordinary resilience and determination.

She made significant contributions to the medical field, such as her groundbreaking book, "A Book of Medical Discourses," which remains a testament to her commitment to advancing medical knowledge. Her accomplishments extended beyond personal success; Dr. Crumpler dedicated her career to providing medical care to underserved communities, especially during the Civil War.
