Ruby Bridges grew up in a poor family in New Orleans, Louisiana. Her family faced significant challenges, including economic hardship, as they lived in a segregated community during the Civil Rights Movement. Despite these difficulties, Bridges became an iconic figure in the fight for racial equality when she was the first African American child to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South.
