states, were decreed free by the Union, about six months after Ida's
birth, thanks to the Emancipation Proclamation. However, living in
Mississippi as African Americans, they faced racial prejudices and were
restricted by discriminatory rules and practices.
When Ida was sixteen
years old both of her parents died from Yellow Fever. In order to keep

the summer and began to write and edit for a local journal.
