Hi friends, happy Thursday!

Welcome to the Dark History podcast. Have you ever been made to seem like the bad guy? Have you ever had everyone turn against you when you were just trying to do something good? Well what about, have you ever had people hate you so much for trying to do the right thing that they blow up your office and you have to flee your home? No? Well all of this and more happened to one Ida B. Wells. In today’s episode we go over the life and legacy of Ida B Wells and how she changed history in so many ways.

I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.

  • I'm a black journalism student, and Ida. B. Wells is a great source of inspiration for me. She's one of the finest reporters this country has ever produced, and her name should be just as well known as Walter Cronkite or Bob Woodward
  • If Bailey was a history teacher , no one would want to leave . 100%
  • @PoreStarEsti
    I'm a Black Woman writer. When I saw that Bailey made a video on my idol, I literally almost cried. Mrs. Wells doesn't get her just due. Thanks Bailey. 💛💛💛
  • @danceN2music
    The devil works hard, but Bailey and her team work harder 👏🏼
  • @olegurrl
    I’ve been a sub for years now but I love that Bailey doesn’t just do “black” American history during black history month. It’s just simply HISTORY, American history. Love that.
  • Everyone needs to hear this story! All of Baileys stories need to be compiled into an actual Dark History book and used in all schools!
  • @DaFoxxyOnex7
    I am from Holly Springs, Mississippi and she is absolutely right about Ida B. Wells. Her house is right up the road from me. And she is highly honored here almost every corner of Holly Springs. She has a strong presence and history there. Thank you for discussing her and her stories.
  • @iammicheale
    Ida B Wells is an integral part of Black History. It's not surprising that you and many others didn't know much about her, but I love you so so much for using your amazing platform to talk about her and spread her story and how important she was. This is why we love you Bailey. You're not only just an amazing and hilarious and talented human being, but you're a true ally to others and we appreciate you!
  • As a Holly springs, Ms resident,thank you so much for talking about Ida.If anyone is ever in Holly Springs,you can actually visit the Ida B. Wells home and it is absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️
  • @leeraxd
    It's crazy that Ida's story isn't taught in American history classes. She was legit an icon. Imagine a world where Ida and people like Ida didn't exist? We wouldn't be exposing our favorite celebrities, powerful directors, and politicians to the way they treat women, POC, and people in general.
  • @Jbeanz2023
    The little middle/high school girl in me is shedding happy tears for our history finally being shared outside of what we were taught at home. Well done Bailey!!
  • @irenea.
    Bailey's voice is so soothing, I literally use her podcasts each night to fall asleep and keep them on all night. I have the best dreams too
  • @enoonz2862
    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS PODCAST!! I am a high school Social Studies teacher and share with my students stories/people that are often left out of the text books. I have use ALOT of info that you have shared in your Podcast in my classroom. I was head over heal when I listened to this one because I talk about Ida B. Wells in connection to the East Saint Louis massacre that took place in July of 1919. I live in Missouri so this particular one hits close to home. It still shocks me how many amazing people from history get ignored or shut down. Thank you for bringing to light/life the TRUE historical heroes! Thanks Bailey!
  • The post office in Lake City, SC is now named in honor of Frazier Baker. At least, it helps keep his story alive. He was a brave man to not give up his post despite the threat of being lynched. Thanks for another great episode, Bailey!
  • @baeleyscott
    as. black person, the black community appreciates you and your team so so much !!
  • There should be a movie about her. Then more people can learn about her
  • @misskissy17
    The more I watch your videos, the more I respect your work. You shine a light where people desire to keep darkness and lies.

    Lifelong resident of Memphis here. No such area called The Curve exists today. Yellow Fever decimated this city. There’s a cemetery here with a section of unmarked graves, because people were dying as such a mass rate, there was no time to identify the bodies or have any sort of tombstone. So proud Ida came here! Ida B. Rising! Lemoyne-Owen College is still in operation, an all-black institution that has stood strong.
