Christia V. Daniels Adair was an African-American suffragist and civil rights worker based in Texas. There is a mural in Texas about her life, displayed in a county park which is named for her.
"The white women were going to vote."
"Christia Adair fought for the rights of both women and African Americans. As a member of the NAACP, she worked to desegregate buses, dressing rooms, libraries, and hospitals."
"The couple later moved to Kingsville, Texas, where Adair helped to spearhead a women’s movement that included fighting against illegal gambling and organizing a petition drive for women’s suffrage."
