Ida B. Wells had five siblings. She was the oldest of eight children born to James and Elizabeth Wells in Holly Springs, Mississippi. Wells' parents were enslaved before the Emancipation Proclamation, and she grew up in a large family that faced many challenges due to racial discrimination and economic hardships. Wells went on to become a prominent journalist, educator, and civil rights activist in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
