In Sonnet, the author makes sure to keep his weakness and conformity aside in hard times. This is proven in line 4, “But do not let thy strength and courage fail.” Ida B. Wells fought for what she believed was good, and she never gave up. She showed courage, determination, and hope. She also put hope in other people who listened to the speeches she got famous from. Line 40 shows she has been successful, “Her speeches raised the consciousness of the nation.”
