Ruby Bridges was the first African American child to integrate an all-white elementary school in the United States, specifically William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1960. Her role was pivotal in the Civil Rights Movement, symbolizing the struggle against segregation in education. As she attended school, she faced significant hostility and racism but became a symbol of courage and resilience. Later in life, she has continued to advocate for civil rights and educational equity.
