Ida B. Wells, who was a former slave, became a journalist and an antilynching crusader as well as women's rights advocate. Since Ida was editor and partial owner of her own newspaper, she published articles about controversial topics based on the cause of fighting against the practice of lynching (option "A" is the correct answer). She believed that no human being had to ignore or justify these horrific racial practices. By being determined to carry out her cause, Ida used the press to expose and denounce these acts of violence, though she received numerous death threats as well as intimidations.
