Perched on the bluffs of the Missouri River, Kansas City began as a crossroads of trails and trade. It endured the turmoil of the Civil War, rose to prominence through railroads and stockyards, and flourished as immigrant communities shaped its cultural mosaic. The Jazz Age gave the city a sound that echoed across the nation, even as Tom Pendergast’s political machine cast long shadows. Baseball and barbecue became traditions that defined its flavor and spirit, while the struggle for civil rights forced the city to confront its conscience and embrace change.

But while Captain America's bike achieved immortality, its creator remained anonymous—a humble craftsman whose genius was overshadowed by his own masterpiece.

Working from his small Los Angeles shop, Hardy didn't just build motorcycles—he forged symbols of freedom that would define an entire era.

The ability to remain and travel underwater for an extended period of time has long been a dream for a good portion of mankind, perhaps second only to that of flying. The first “submersible” may have been a kind of glass container made for Alexander the Great so that he could observe undersea life firsthand. Despite this early attempt, fate decreed the idea of traveling beneath the surface of the water would lie fallow for nearly another 2,000 years after this experiment in about 332 B. C. Alexander’s death the next year effectively squashed any further developments.

Although Du Bois’ name is still (and inexplicably) less well-known than that of Washington, his prolific writings serve as a bedrock to the modern social engines at work in the pursuit of racial equality in America. In his life and experience of nearly a century, he spanned the administrations of Andrew Johnson and Lyndon Baines Johnson, dying only one day before King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. W. E. B. Du Bois: The Life and Legacy of Early 20th Century America’s Most Famous Civil Rights Activist chronicles the life and work of one of America’s most influential men.
