Ruby Bridges
has written a new book,This is Your Time, for the 60th anniversary of, "At the tender age of six, Ruby Bridges advanced the cause of civil rights in November 1960 when she became the first African American student to integrate an elementary school in the South" and "Inspired by the recent wave of activism led by young people fighting for racial justice, civil rights icon Ruby Bridges shares her story and offers a powerful call to action.".
"The struggle continues...
May my past, my story inspire you.
The first steps toward change are never easy.
Keep your eyes on the Prize."
~ Ruby Bridges
40/365
I can not think of a better "Ruby" for the treasure hunt in the 365/2021 - Expanding Horizons group. And I support the text on the open page of the book.
