Ida B. Wells: A Red Record is a film made using in-game footage from the western game, overdubbed by narration that explains the characters and storytelling. The picture, just shy of 40 minutes, tells of the life and times of the titular Ida B. Wells, a journalist and major figure in the civil rights movement known for her work investigating racially motivated lynchings in the American south during the late 1800s.
The movie is named for Wells’ The Red Record, a 100-page document she published in 1895 that discussed the growing use of lynching without trial or fair process on Black people within southern states. The plot, as it were, is a retelling of Wells’ early life, and her putting together The Red Record. Some of the contents therein are quoted verbatim, and at the end you can see people from around the USA reading it, reflecting the piece’s influence in places outside the south.
