Summary Ella Josephine Baker was among the most influential strategists of the most important social movement in modern U.S. history, the civil rights movement. With a career that spanned decades, and which began long before the civil rights movement took on widespread, populist appeal, Ella Baker was one of the few women leading the charge for racial equality from the 1930's until her death in 1986.
