Wells was an African American journalist and activist who led and founded groups striving for African American justice. On a train ride from Memphis to Nashville, she was forced out of her seat. After this incident, she sued the railroad, winning a $500 settlement in a circuit court case.

You will most likely have to refer to the text when you write this.
