Crusade for Justice: The Autobiography of Ida B. Wells by Ida B. Wells-Barnett
5.0
Strong. Leader. Vocal. Bold. Activist. Ida B. Wells was a force to be reckon with.
As a Black journalist, Civil Rights Activist, and Anti-lynch crusader, Wells dominated the LEADER role in EVERY role she took on. She was very vocal against the Board Of Education as she stood up against educational inequality against the Black youth.
Wells, faced much criticism from her own culture. She nevertheless, continued to speak out against injustice, oppression, inequality, and much more, no matter who didn’t accept or agree with her views.
A voice that threatened the functions of any type of unjust behaviors, she will always be apart of our history and apart of our Black culture of Women leaders.
I highly recommend adding Ida. B. Wells to your diverse reads if you want an authentic piece of history, spoken from an African American woman who challenged societal and political norms.
