In celebration of Black History Month, here is your fact for the day: Phillis Wheatley was the first African American to publish a book of poetry, Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral, in 1773. Born in the Gambia she sold to the Wheatley family in Boston when she was 7 years old, Wheatley was emancipated shortly after her book was released.
