Essential Context

30425
This page will contain an explanation of our contextual information essays/paragraphs (on, for example, temperance, suffrage, Jim Crow/disfranchisement, lynching, etc.) and links to all of them.

We will need to recruit authors for each of these essays and determine a word count. Authors should also include at least one or two images to illustrate their text. Each essay should make clear how/why the topic connects to the main Willard/Wells story.
