Ruby: The Story Of Ruby Bridges

Regional
Revival


SYNOPSIS: Ruby Bridges was six years old when the civil rights movement came hammering at her door — choosing her as the first African-American child to integrate an all-white elementary school in the South. When white families pulled their children from her class, Ruby and her first-grade teacher, Mrs. Henry, forged ahead undaunted, even while protestors jeered and threatened young Ruby’s life daily when federal marshals escorted her to and from school.

Directed by Sarah Walker Thornton
