“Ruby Bridges has always been a civil rights advocate, with her experience as the first Black child to enter an all-white school in the South making her a household name.
Though her experience in school was harrowing due to blatant racism and the targeting of her family, Bridges never missed a day of school.
Presently, the Ruby Bridges Foundation and Bridges herself continue to host speaking engagements and write children’s books to strive for an end to racism in America.” Ruby Bridges is 70 years old. https://www.womenshistory.org/…/biographies/ruby-bridges
