At six years old, Ruby Bridges walked into a classroom that didn’t want her there. In 1960, she became the first Black child to integrate William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans — escorted by U.S. marshals and facing angry crowds just to attend school. But the walk into that classroom was only the beginning. Ruby Bridges later dedicated her life to promoting education, tolerance, and leadership through the Ruby Bridges Foundation, helping inspire future generations to stand up for equality. Because access to education changes everything. This Women’s History Month, we honor Ruby Bridges — and the women who built what we stand on. She marched. Now we march. #WomensHistoryMonth #MarchOn #WomenLead #CivilRights #RubyBridges
