"Ida B. Wells: Let the Truth Be Told" by Walter Dean Myers tells the inspiring story of Ida B. Wells, an African American journalist and activist who dedicated her life to fighting against racism and injustice in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book chronicles her journey from a young girl in Mississippi to a fierce advocate for civil rights and a pioneering figure in the anti-lynching movement. Through her powerful writing and courageous actions, Wells challenged societal norms and brought attention to the horrors of lynching, becoming a significant voice in the struggle for equality and justice.
