OTD in 1896, Suffragist Mary Church Terrell co-founded & was the first president of the National Association of Colored Women in D.C. with the goal of promoting equality for Black women. ✊🏽 NACWC, Inc. became the largest federation of local black women’s clubs. 📸ACM Collections
On this date in 1954, we lost Mary Church Terrell. From teaching Latin at Dunbar High, to her appointment to the DC school board, to her efforts desegregating DC restaurants, she’s a local legend. For her early work with @naacp & NACWC, Inc., she is a national civil rights icon.
