About the Event
Journalist. Suffragist. Antilynching crusader. In 1862, Ida B. Wells was born enslaved in Holly Springs, Mississippi. In 2020, she was awarded a Pulitzer Prize. Ida B. the Queen tells the awe-inspiring story of a pioneering woman who was often overlooked and underestimated —a woman who refused to exit a train car meant for white passengers; a woman who brought to light the horrors of lynching in America; and a woman who cofounded the NAACP. Written by Wells’ great-granddaughter Michelle Duster, it is a unique visual celebration of Wells’ life, and of the Black experience.
