Ruby Bridges: A Six-Year-Old Facing Racism
November 14th, 1960, marks a poignant day in the fight for desegregation in the United States. On this day, six-year-old Ruby Bridges bravely walked into William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans, Louisiana, becoming the first African American student to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South.
@TheNewsOwl @JazzCrafter Norman Rockwell also illustrated her.
The painting is known as "The Problem We All Live WIth."
