Thomas Calhoun Walker (1862-1953) was a teacher, attorney, and government official, known as Virginia’s “Black Governor”. Walker was born enslaved in a small cabin, a year before President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation that freed enslaved African Americans in the southern states. At the age of 13 Walker still couldn’t read or write yet he learned after a teacher gave him a spelling book called, “John’s Common Book.” Walker saved money and went to Hampton Institute to gain a higher education yet couldn’t pass the entrance exam. He persuaded the school’s founder to make an exception. Walker was studying law. After Walker was admitted to the Virginia Bar he worked on many cases to defend African Americans. Walker got into politics and was elected to the Gloucester County Board of Supervisors. Later, he was appointed by President Roosevelt as the advisor and consultant of Negro affairs for the Virginia Emergency Relief Administration.
The visionary minds behind Gagarin Show present a 62 piece NFT collectible “American Heroes” which is inspired by some of the most iconic and notable people in American History. The 62 American icons selected for this NFT series represent people who wholeheartedly believed in dignity, strived for freedom, and fiercely fought for human rights. Each NFT is a 3D character model that depicts a particular American hero.
The concept of this NFT series is to shine a light on actual heroes of the real world who have dedicated their entire lives to battling evil and inequality long before the emergence of fictional superheroes. Modern pop culture has elevated and idolized protagonists with superpowers and they have become somewhat of a cult. Films about superheroes are a success at the box office, attracting millions of people around the world whilst superhero characters are deemed as aspirational.
