Ida B. Wells-Barnett: Civil Rights Activist

"The matter came up for judicial investigation, but as might have been expected, the white people concluded it was unnecessary to wait the result of the investigation—that it was preferable to hang the accused first and try him afterward."
Ida B. Wells

Ida B. Wells was a civil rights activist, investigative journalist, author, women's suffragist, and overall incredible person who not as many people know about. She was labeled a "race agitator", and put under surveillance by the U.S government during WW1.
