Psst, wanna know who Ida is?
Ida B. Wells-Barnett was a prominent journalist, activist, and researcher, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In her lifetime, she battled sexism, racism, and violence. Wells was an active fighter for woman suffrage, particularly for Black women. In 1913 she founded what may have been the first Black women’s suffrage group, Chicago’s Alpha Suffrage Club. For more than four decades, Wells-Barnett’s militant voice brought worldwide attention to the evil of lynching and influenced the course of American reform.
