Ida B. Wells
By Luke McQueen | Feb. 11, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Ida B. Wells-Barnett was born Ida B. Wells in 1862 in Holly Springs, Mississippi. The oldest of eight children, Wells became a teacher to support her younger siblings after the death of her parents in 1880 from yellow fever. Despite her many obstacles, financial and racial, Wells finished her studies at Rust College and in 1888, became a teacher and anti-lynching activist in Tennessee. She became editor and co-owner of a local black newspaper called "The Free Speech and Headlight," and Wells utilized her editorial column to denounce the lynching of blacks and encourage the black people of Memphis to move west.
Harriet Tubman
By Varun Gulati | Feb. 11, 2005, midnight | In Print »
Araminta Ross, born in Maryland around 1820, worked both as a house slave and a field worker for a family in Dorchester County. Ross was an advocate for slaves' rights and was even hit at one point by a brick while protecting a fellow field worker. As a result, Ross had to deal with a condition that sent her into bouts of deep sleep, presumably narcolepsy, for the rest of her life. In 1844, Ross married John Tubman and took his last name while changing her first to Harriet.
