Ruby Bridges’ courage changed history — and her story continues to inspire new generations. As the first Black child to integrate William Frantz Elementary School in 1960, Ruby faced hatred and resistance with extraordinary strength, becoming a powerful symbol of resilience and hope. 

This year, we’re celebrating her legacy by putting books, creativity, and imagination in children’s hands. When young voices are centered, they help shape a brighter future for us all. 

Join us on August 1 for the #RubyBridgesReadingFestival. To learn more, visit: link in bio!
