Ida B. Wells (19th Amendment Anniversary Special)

Tour Guide Tell All’s celebration of the Centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment continues with a look at Ida B. Wells. All month long, to celebrate this important milestone for women and the country, we are focusing on the struggle for suffrage, and the women who fought to give us the right to vote.  For our third installment, we are talking about suffragist, civil rights pioneer, journalist, and anti-lynching advocate Ida B. Wells.     Join us as we tell the story of this incredible woman and talk about the emergence of feminism from the perspective of women of color and how their story has diverged, often in painful ways, from the more traditional (and incomplete) narrative of white feminism.     Comments of Questions?  Have an idea for a future episode?
