Description | Collection of essays on the life and work of activist and journalist Ida B. Wells-Barnett (1862-1931). Known as an anti-lynching crusader, Ida B. Wells-Barnett worked throughout her life as a political advocate for the rights of women, minorities and members of the working class. This volume provides insight into communication techniques such as lecture circuits, public relations campaigns and investigative journalism, which Wells-Barnett used to combat racism and sexism and to promote social equity. Also her dual career as a journalist and political agitator, her advocacy efforts on (inter)national and local level and her role as a bridge in key social movements of the nineteenth and twentieth century, are considered. |
