I love Ida B> WElls story it inspires a lot of colored people to wake up everyday knowing that she fought for racial equality. Its amazing to even know that they she fought for us back then like that and to write many books to it was a blessing to even see that side of her take on!! All I want to say is thankyou IDA B> WELLS!!!
