YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Ida B. Wells made it her mission to let Americans know about the suffering of African-Americans and the horrors of lynching.

This week, we'll look at Wells's transition from educator to investigative journalist. We'll learn about the 1892 lynching that spurred Wells into action, how white audiences responded to her scathing remarks, and the book she released in 1895 that shed a light on just how many African-Americans were being lynched in the United States.
