Ella Baker

Although we have come a long way, there is still inequality in the world for all types of minority groups. Ella Baker made a name for herself despite all the things pushing her back. As a woman in the Civil Rights movemnt Ella Baker was often overlooked. She worked alongside many famous Civil Rights activists and leaders like; W.E.B Du Bois and Martin Luther King Jr.  She had different believes than a lot of others involved in the movement. She strongly believed in giving power to the people and letting them make decisions rather than having someone in a position of power do all of the work. Even though the Civil Rights movement came with a lot of progress there is still work to be done. Ella Baker was a figure in the movement that made the inclusion of more people in the movement easier.
