Ruby Bridges' father, Reuben Bridges, was a hard-working man who held various jobs, including as a sharecropper. He opposed the decision to integrate Ruby into an all-white school due to concerns about her safety and the potential backlash from the community. Ultimately, he supported Ruby's courage, though it strained family dynamics during the Civil Rights Movement. Reuben's experiences reflected the broader struggles faced by African American families during that era.
