Ruby Bridges was six when she entered William Frantz Elementary as the first Black child to integrate a white school in the South. The crowds that gathered outside weren’t simply angry — they were violent. Adults screamed racial slurs at her, held up hateful signs, threw objects, and threatened her life. Some parents pulled their children out of school because they didn’t want them to sit beside her. Inside the building, teachers refused to teach her, except for one who stood by her side. Yet every morning Ruby walked forward, holding her books, showing a calm that no child should ever have needed.
Her courage didn’t end there. As she grew older, she continued speaking about tolerance, education, and the power of confronting racism without losing one’s humanity. Today she works as an activist, author, and public speaker, helping children understand the world she had to walk through alone at six years old.
