    6-year old Ruby Bridges walking to school.

    This picture was always so powerful to me. I think I had that one famous illustrated storybook about Ruby Bridges.

      On the one hand, very important photo to understand the context of the time.

      On the other hand, monstrous that a child going to school was such a big deal and so much attention was focused on her. Can’t imagine that making a positive impression on a child.
