Suffragist. Antilynching crusader. In 1862, Ida B. Wells was born enslaved in Holly Springs, Mississippi. In 2020, she won a Pulitzer Prize. Wells committed herself to the needs of those who did not have power. In the eyes of the FBI, this made her a 'dangerous negro agitator.' In the annals of history, it makes her an icon. Ida B. the Queen tells the awe-inspiring story of an pioneering woman who was often overlooked and underestimated--a woman who refused to exit a train car meant for white passengers; a woman brought to light the horrors of lynching in America; a woman who cofounded the NAACP. Written by Wells's great-granddaughter Michelle Duster, this 'warm remembrance of a civil rights icon' is a unique visual celebration of Wells's life, and of the Black experience. A century after her death, Wells's genius is being celebrated in popular culture by politicians, through song, public artwork, and landmarks. Like her contemporaries Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony, Wells left an indelible mark on history--one that can still be felt today. As America confronts the unfinished business of systemic racism, Ida B. the Queen pays tribute to a transformational leader and reminds us of the power we all hold to smash the status quo"--Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 323.092 Wells-Barnett Du Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 323.092 Wells-Barnett Du Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 323.092 Wells-Barnett Du Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 323.092 Wells-Barnett Du Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 323.092 Wells-Barnett Du Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 323.092 We missing from shelf Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Biography 323.092 Wells-Barnett Du Checked In Add Copy to MyList
