Description

Through her investigative journalism covering southern lynchings, Ida B Wells not only set the groundwork for the way news is reported today, she was also a founding member of the NAACP as well as a pioneer in the civil rights movement. She also scared racists so bad they destroyed her newspaper. Did that stop her? Listen to find out! (OK of course it didn't but there's still more to hear!)
