Críticas:
"Wells was the most comprehensive chronicler of that common practice for which few words exist that provide sufficient condemnation. For that reason, and for Wells' immense courage, clear pen, and understanding of the nature of journalistic advocacy, this new volume ought to become required reading for anyone interested in American history or current affairs." --Flavorwire "An enlightening read, this collection will inspire anyone who still believes that journalism can be a voice for the voiceless." --Bust Magazine "Ida B Wells stands out because she insisted on seeing." --Ta-Nehisi Coates
Reseña del editor:

In this collection, Wells's anti-lynching crusade comes alive. Through brilliant social analysis, she exposed lynching as part of a larger framework of subjugation in which white people used violence as a deliberate tactic to combat black economic progress in the southern USA. Wells won international renown for her investigative journalism, leading her on lecture tours around the Northern States and Europe, where she rallied support against lynching.

Wells established herself as an advocate for social justice and human dignity by combining irrefutable evidence with deeply personal emotional appeal.

This volume is edited and introduced by Wells biographer Mia Bay.

Buchbeschreibung Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The broadest and most comprehensive collection of writings available by an early civil and women's rights pioneerSeventy-one years before Rosa Parks's courageous act of resistance, police dragged a young black journalist named Ida B. Wells off a train for refusing to give up her seat. The experience shaped Wells's career, and-when hate crimes touched her life personally-she mounted what was to become her life's work: an anti-lynching crusade that captured international attention.This volume covers the entire scope of Wells's remarkable career, collecting her early writings, articles exposing the horrors of lynching, essays from her travels abroad, and her later journalism. The Light of Truth is both an invaluable resource for study and a testament to Wells's long career as a civil rights activist.For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
