Today in 1913, 5,000 women marched up Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., demanding the right to vote. The parade took place the day before President Wilson's inauguration, and was the first civil rights parade in the capital.
Suffragists debated whether African American participants should be forced to march in a segregated section. Some white suffragists called for a segregated parade.
Ida B. Wells—a leader in the struggle for woman suffrage who founded the Alpha Suffrage Club to advocate for women's rights and to push for the election of African Americans—joined the parade and marched alongside the all-white Illinois delegation.
Wells fought for civil rights as an investigative journalist, traveling the South and gathering records in a decades-long campaign against lynching that made its horrors known nationwide.
Her portrait, by Mary Garrity c. 1893, is in @smithsoniannpg.

tipxi_0199 I am not sure that many of us recognize the phenomenal courage and will it took this woman to do what she did. Those were different times. Anybody who stood up and raged against the machine back then- I salute and thank you. We could not have what we do without you.

ashsmom89 My pastor told us the extended story of Ida B Wells last year during black history month. There were things I didn't know about this courageous woman!

buffoonmeat ❤️ Which book(s) would you recommend to learn more about her? I read about her in ‘City of Scoundrels’ and would love to know more

marcweiglein Great profile you got there! Does an intrepid adventure to the West Papuan jungle sound exciting to you? Follow my journey.
