Gabby Douglas

In the 90s, Dominique Dawes repped for little Black girls everywhere when she became an Olympic champion in gymnastics. Almost 20 years later in 2012, Gabby Douglas picked up Dominique's torch and legacy during the Olympic games. Gabby became the first Black woman to win both the team gold medal and the gold in the individual all around competition.
