RUBY BRIDGES
Two years after the Brown v. Board of Education ruling that called for integration of public schools, Federal District Court ordered that the New Orleans School Board formulate an integration plan for public schools. After 4 years of opposition, the school board chose to integrate two formerly all-white schools in the fall of 1960. Bridges was one of a handful of Black children chosen to attend William Frantz Public School.

November 14, 1960, was Ruby Bridges’ first day at William Frantz. Because of the threat of violence, Ruby was escorted to school by 4 armed U.S. Federal marshals. When they were met by protestors & media, she spent her first day of school in the principal’s office. When she did begin classes, she was the only student in her classroom as white families had withdrawn their children from the school. By December 5, 1960, only 18 other students attended classes there.

Ruby was taught by Barbara Henry, a white teacher new to the school. She was not allowed to go to recess or eat lunch in the cafeteria because it was deemed too dangerous. Her family also suffered. They were asked to avoid shopping in neighborhood stores & her father, Abon, was fired from his job. Sympathetic citizens across the country sent them money & gifts to help. She also received a letter of support from former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.

She spent the entire 1st grade yr receiving one on one instruction from Barbara Henry. She was escorted to school by U.S. Marshals, or driven by a taxi each day. By the beginning of 2nd grade, the protestors were gone & the classes were officially integrated.

Her story was immortalized in works of art and film. John Steinbeck wrote about Ruby and the other girls who integrated the New Orleans schools in his book Travels with Charley, and painter Norman Rockwell created his work “The Problem We All Live With."

She graduated & became a travel agent, one of the 1st African Americans, to work for American Express in New Orleans. She also established the Ruby Bridges Foundation.

I'm thankful for her boldness!

Color corrections are my JAM! 🍯

She went to another stylist and unfortunately had it come out nothing like what she wanted. She came to me with a very uneven bleach out and faded pigments. After 2 sessions we got to her desired color and she couldn't be more pleased. ✨️😍

Here is some work from this week! Let's get you booked!!
