Ruby Bridges

Ruby was born in 1954 in Tylertown , Mississppi, she was the one of the first Black girls to go to a all white school, her mom wanted her to get the best education and when she went to school all the white parents began to protest because they though whites were better and shoudn't be taught with black people. Ruby was taught in a classroom by herslef and a teacher and on another level of floor. She graduated and wanted to help other black students get a better education so she started the Ruby Bridges Foundation. She made a big impact at the time because blacks were scared to put their children in a all white school and i think by her going to a all white school it made others relize that their children could do the same.
