A young journalist set out to expose the truth about these killings. Her reports shocked the nation, launched her journalism career and a lifelong pursuit of civil rights. Christina Greer details the life of Ida B. Wells and her tireless struggle for justice. [Directed by Anna Nowakowska, narrated by Christina Greer, music by Matthias Runge].
