online event; open to the public and all mentees & mentors
This year, activist Ida B. Wells makes her debut as part of the Barbie Inspiring Women Series. To celebrate, Michelle Duster, author of Ida B. the Queen: The Extraordinary Life and Legacy of Ida B. Wells, takes salon guests through the process of writing her incredible tribute to her great-grandmother and civil rights icon, Ida B. Wells. Not all of us have a transformational civil rights leader in our family, but we do have people in our lives who inspire us.
Join us for a cozy evening of sharing stories, as Michelle Duster leads us in uncovering history through the tales of the people most near and dear to our hearts.
