Mary Church Terrell was the child of former slaves and an activist all her life. She was one of the first Black women to earn a college degree in the U.S, she traveled the world, she was at one time the president of the NACW (National Association of Colored Women), and, in her 80's, inspired the supreme court case that would make Brown V. The Board of Education possible. She was always looking for opportunities to inspire Black and white people to action for civil rights, and was an important figure in the movement up until the moment of her death in 1953. Mary Church Terrell was a good witch and bad bitch whose work in her era made a lot of other activism possible today.
