Title A name given to the resource Reform (Social or Labor) Description An account of the resource The reform collection highlights those women who dared to influence labor changes to expand worker control over their conditions or who dared to reform society in a positive manner. In the United States, women have historically been major contributors to the great reform movements. Although their work is not given as much credit as those of their male counterparts, it was women who did much of the grassroots campaigning for universal suffrage, abolition of slavery, labor legislation, prison reform, social welfare programs, asylum reform, religious freedom, peace programs, and universal education. This collection then highlights the work of some of those activists and encourages us to be part of the solution and not part of the problem. Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Birth Date 1862 Birthplace Holly Springs, Mississippi, USA Death Date 1931 Occupation Journalist and editor Biographical Text Wells-Barnett was born a slave and rose to become a journalist, newspaper editor, suffragist, and civil rights leader. An activist for civil rights for women and people of color, her writings exposed racial and sexual discrimination. Two of her pamphlets were quite influential, <em>Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in All Its Part</em>s and <em>A Red Record, 1892-1894</em>, both of which described lynching and the struggle of black people since emancipation. Her protest influenced the NAACP to take up an anti-lynching campaign. She was actively engaged in women's clubs and formed the Women's  Era Club, the first civic organization for African-American women. In 1896, she founded the National Association of Colored Women. A suffragist, she fought to make sure that women of all races secured the vote. Bibliography <p>Davidson, James West. <em>'They say': Ida B. Wells and the Reconstruction of Race</em>.
