Pulitzer Prize Board citation to Ida B. Wells, as an early pioneer of investigative journalism and civil rights iconFrom a thinker who Maya Angelou has praised for shining “a brilliant light on the lives of women left in the shadow of history,” comes the definitive biography of Ida B. Wells—crusading journalist and pioneer in the fight for women’s suffrage and against segregation and lynchings Ida B. Wells was born into slavery and raised in the Victorian age yet emerged—through her fierce political battles and progressive thinking—as the first “modern” black women in the nation’s history. Wells began her activist career when she tried to segregate a first-class railway car in Memphis. After being thrown bodily off the car, she wrote about the incident for black Baptist newspapers, thus beginning her career as a journalist. But her most abiding fight would be the one against lynching, a crime in which she saw all the themes she held most dear coalesce: sexuality, race, and the law.

I have been wanting to learn more about Ida B Wells for a long while, and finally read this book. It's especially interesting to see the historical context and the activist writings/work by Ida and others - and how much it resonates with issues and perspectives today. Author does a good job of discussing the context of what Ida did and thought, and relating her sources (this came from Ida's writings, this came from a different source) -- this gives a fuller picture of what Ida may have been thinking (i.e., it's interesting to hear that certain big events were not discussed directly by Ida in her journal). Author does a good job of relaying relevant information and fitting it togther. Sometimes it's a bit dense, but it's history and so this is not surprising. I'm enjoying this book, even if I need to read it in fixed doses.
