Joan Quigley is the author of “Just Another Southern Town: Mary Church Terrell and the Struggle for Racial Justice in the Nation’s Capital” and “The Black Woman Who Led the Fight Against Jim Crow – And Why No One Has Ever Heard of Her” featured in TPM’s new longform magazine The Arch. She’ll be stopping by the Hive (sub req) today to talk more about the topics covered in the piece, from Barack Obama’s inaugural reference in 2009 to his father not being served, Black Lives Matter as a contemporary platform for activist women, and the way that Terrell set a precedent for Rosa Parks.
Joan will be answering questions at noon — drop them in now or join us during the live chat.
