BUFFALO, N.Y. — A World War II plane has arrived in Buffalo as part of the Rise Above exhibit.
It's a traveling exhibit featuring two films and one plane to educate people about the adversities of the Tuskegee Airmen and the Women's Airforce Service Pilots.
The plane on display is from the first all-Black fighter squadron in World War II.
"These were people who overcame an abnormal amount of adversity and they did it through excellence. If that's something these students could take to heart and adopt when facing their own adversity, that's a message that's universal. It's not tied to one historic message or any one historic period, " said Chris Allen, Exhibit Director of Rise Above.
The Rise Above exhibit is at no cost to those who would like to check it out this week.
It will be at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport until Saturday.
