@amhureritrea: Ella Baker (Dec 13 1903 - Dec 13 1986) speaking at the 1974 Puerto Rico Solidarity rally in New York, NY. For Women’s History Month we honor civil rights activist Ella Baker. Her presence, dedication, and leadership throughout the Civil Rights movement inspired a great deal of grassroots organizing. In a time where Black women struggled to be seen, Ella Baker constantly strived to make the voices of many heard over a few. She played a crucial role in the NAACP, worked to desegregate schools, and founded the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. These moments only scratch the surface of her legacy, and her words still ring true today. We cannot win our fight for liberation in isolation. Our strength comes from our collective action and requires our daily commitment. #blackhistoryunlocked #blackhistory365 #explorepage✨ #panafricanism #voiceoftheancestors
