Biography Of Ida B. Wells
[ send me this essay ]
11 pages in length. Like so many others who grow up a minority surrounded by the constant inequity of racial and cultural divide, Ida B. Wells was outraged by the society in which she lived. Unlike most others, however, Wells did not sit idly by and merely complain about the intolerable situation; a young, black woman with a fire lit beneath her very being, she used her talents as a writer and her courage as a young, defiant black woman to make a mark in history that preceded the likes of Rosa Parks and other more contemporary suffragettes. Her passion was justified when she successfully brought lynching to national attention and ultimately played an integral role in its decline near the end of the twentieth century. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
