Passionate for Justice: Ida B. Wells as Prophet for Our Time

Passionate for Justice: Ida B. Wells as Prophet for Our Time

By Catherine Meeks and Nibs Stroupe

A resource for social justice and resilience, Wells was a powerful churchwoman and witness for justice and equity from 1878-1931. Born enslaved, her witness flowed through the struggles for justice in her lifetime, especially in the intersections of African Americans, women, and those who were poor. Her life is a profound witness for faith-based work when the forces of injustice stand in opposition to progress.
