Mary Church Terrell was born in 1863, the year in which Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation to free the slaves. Ms. Terrell was the daughter of an exslave who had gone on to achieve wealth, and she spent her life in the fight for equality. She became an author, speaker, and an activist, living in segregated Washington, D. C.
In 1895, Mary Terrell became a Washington, D. C. School Board member. In 1896, she was a charter member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Women. In 1890 she joined the ony-year-old National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. She organized and led Washington campaigns for women’s rights and fight to integrate Washington restaurants and organized Delta Sigma Theta Sorority in 1913.
She was often sent .as the U. S. delegate to international conferences. At the international Council of Women at Berlin, she astounded her audience by giving her speech in German, English and French. In 1953 at the age of eighty-nine, Mary Terrell lost a court case that found that segregation was valid. In 1954 she died in Annapolis, but not until a few months after the Supreme Court’s decision making discrimination by race illegal.
Ralph Bunche was born in Detroit and educated at UCLA and Harvard. He taught government at Howard University until World War IT. Bunche is remembered now for his part in the civil fights struggle, having marched in Selma and Nontgomery. But he, too, live Mary Church Terrell, served his government at very high levels.

In 1950 he received the Noble Peace Prize for his part in the armistice talks, and he also received our highest civilian award, the Medal of Freedom. Just before his death in 1971, Bunche retired from the United Nations after twenty five years of service.
