During Black History Month, Ryan learns more about her ancestors and local Black pioneers, and their hopes for her generation.

Ryan Hart is thinking about the future. Middle school is just around the corner, which means it's time to start thinking about her plans -- and not just how to prank her brother, Ray! She'd like to make sure she goes to middle school with her friends, and that is up in the air since Kiki's mom wants to send Kiki to a different school next year. Ryan also wonders who she wants to be when she grows up, and if that's more than just what her job will be. She'd like to be a chef, of course, and a leader, and brave like the Black pioneers she learns about in school. so what ARE Ryan's dreams? And how can she make them come true, especially when she doesn't even know what the next school will bring?
