She Gave Her Life For Others: Finding Josie, pt. 2
Josie Wells was a prominent African American doctor in Tennessee in the early 20th Century. She worked to provide health care for women and children, particularly for those in the African American community who were unable to find quality care elsewhere. She did these things in the midst of the Jim Crow Era, a time of legal segregation and disenfranchisement for African Americans.
