Description
Story of a mostly forgotten crusader for Black and women's rights, Ida B. Wells Barnett, born in slavery on a plantation in Mississippi. She very effectively used the press and the written word to sway public opinion on matters from post civil war lynching to rights for women and helping secure freedom for supposed perpetrators of the Arkansas race riots. Toni Morrison reads passages from Ida's memoirs as part of the way the story is told.
Language
Closed captioned.
