About this listen

 Throughout Black History Month, Reporter's Notebook is celebrating the accomplishments and contributions of African American journalists throughout U.S. history. This week, we tell the story of Ida B. Wells, an investigative reporter who shed light on the horrors of lynching during the 1800s through her work at the Memphis Free Speech and Headlight, as well as in two earth-shattering publications in the 1890s read across the country and around the world.
