Ida B. Wells

Bonnie starts off Injustice Month with a crusader for justice, Ida B. Wells. As an author, journalist, and civil rights leader, Ida brought information and power to the movement for African-American equality. She was one of the founders of the NAACP and was forcibly removed from a train for the color of her skin in 1884 (71 years before Rosa Parks).

Gal’s Guide has these books about Ida B. Wells as well as a student-friendly podcast episode about her.
