Ida B. Wells was a prominent muckraker who documented lynching incidents in the South during the early 20th century. Through her investigative journalism, particularly in her pamphlet "Southern Horrors: Lynch Law in All Its Phases," she exposed the brutal realities of racial violence and challenged the prevailing narratives that justified lynching. Wells' work was instrumental in raising awareness and advocating for civil rights.
