Mary Church Terrell (1863-1954) was one of the most remarkable women of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Active in both the civil rights movement and the campaign for women's suffrage, Terrell was a leading spokesperson for the National American Woman Suffrage Association, the first president of the National Association of Colored Women, and the first black woman appointed to the District of Columbia Board of Education and the American Association of University.
