Man, Ruby Bridges looks so young after all these years.

shes the one ? wow. A living legend

The fact that a parent looked at a little girl and said “I’m going to hang her” makes me so incredibly angry

Hard to believe this happened in the US such a short time ago

This rocks my world that this was only 57 years ago. It's so crazy to hear and see hatred for a 6 year old little girl that did absolutely nothing to anyone.

WE should never FORGET.

R - responsible. U - understanding. B - beautiful black woman. Y - youthful. B - blissful. R - respectful. I - icon. D - dazzling. G - galore. E - encouraging. S - special. love you ruby ` 🧡.

instagram brought me here.... this is so heartbreaking for me to watch. the fact that she’s only 65 let’s you know that racism has never ended. this happened not long ago. my mother is 63...this could’ve been my mother 😢

Ruby Bridges is such a great women. She was very brave and kind during the 60's. Thank you for sharing your story Ruby! I was looking around the internet like this. +1 Like

I'm in 4th grade and we do this thing called the Living Wax Museum and I chose to do her! And I'm doing the presentation tomorrow! (March 7th, 2018)

Hatred is learned. Those people protesting passed on that hate to their children and so on. Schools have re segregated, but they’ve gotten creative and sly about it.

All thoes mums and teachers should forever be ashamed of themselves and of their children, for teaching children how to hate so badly.

It’s sad how that little boy didn’t even realize he was being racist. That’s how he was raised. and like ruby said, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he said. And ruby didn’t even think there was anything wrong with what he said. She just took it as an explanation. So sad how normal it was to say racist things like that and they weren’t considered wrong

She's right. Love thy neighbor. Jesus speaks of this often.

whoever dislikes this video they did not understand the message

this made me cry

If it wasn't for ruby blacks and whites wouldn't be in the same school together....I LOVE YOU RUBY BRIDGE'S!!

The 25 people who dislike this video must be some the teachers and parents of the time when Ruby was a 6 years old

She’s a great woman why would someone treat a child like that thank you ruby

This is my mom's account. I am 9 years old. She really inspires me.

God bless Ms Ruby.

I love both of there spirits. Listening to this make me think on when my Gma was walking to school getting spit on. It’s 2018 and she’s still alive that’s my hero..

You can see that she truly has no ounce of racism in her heart. She really does see everyone the same. You can see that in her words. How very rare.

I will NEVER forget this situation. We lived in Mississippi at the time, and racial division was very, very much in progress. But I will never understand how a people can hate you because of the color of your skin. When I began to read the Bible, and the stories in the Old Testament that talks about the life and journey of the "children of Israel", it seems we're still having the same struggle, GOD HELP US!!

4:55 broke my heart and felt it bc as a 13 year old black male I feel like this is still going on and I feel her pain

I Was Born in New Orleans in 1967. Wow. What A Story.

God, her story tears me up - to see a beautiful young child threatened & called names for the color of her skin - yet, remarkably, she doesn't appear bitter and, in fact, she has used her experiences to help others. I wish I had been able to walk into that school holding her hand, letting her know that not everyone hated her. Just to give that small comfort. Thank God for her courage & strength and for her teacher's caring presence.

Breaks my hearts knowing she had to go through this. Breaks my heart hearing those racist chants. She has such kindness, pure positivity and love in her heart. She is a real life superhero.

Ruby Bridges gave me my inspiration 😁

Watching this little story brings tears to my eyes because I am just from learning through devotion about Christ's words "love your enemies, do good to those that despise you and bless those who curse you". Ruby Bridges prayed every day on her way to and from that school "Father forgive them for they do not know what they do". Today so much has changed, and so much hasnt, but indeed one can say that Ruby Bridges, practicing the principle of non-violence and love with great courage, overcame the hatred and ignorance of those that segregated her with resolve. Indeed one cannot mention Ruby Bridges without mentioning all those who worked tirelessly through the NAACP, the teacher, psychologist, neighbors and good people that chose to stand and support not just Ruby Bridges, but her entire family and through them, people of color. In spite of the challenges we see today when it comes to black people, God has been faithful, and the changes are still coming, albeit slower than we had anticipated. Hatred cannot be confronted with hatred. Segregation and intolerance cannot be reciprocated the same way. The true Kingdom principle is what Christ commanded us... "love your enemies, bless those who curse you, pray for those who persecute you and forgive!" Lord, help me to live this way and overcome what I feel.

She inspires me so much but at the end am I the only one that cried she's the sweetest and most loving role model for anybody including me

hey Ruby idk if you will ever hear this but you should be proud you fought for us and i respect you so much

Just imagine being 6 years old and going through this

So brave this was one of my favorite black history month story's

She’s such a legend🥺

Carla Linton. One thing about me. I am a Christian Woman and I don't have Racial Hatred or Racial Prejudice in my heart against any one. I love people of all races and nationalities. Because one thing about it. We are all Human Beings and we're all Gods Children.

18 people disliked this why she has such a great messages and her bravery great story

I cried the first time I learned about Ruby Bridges, she is a wonderful person and I hope to meet her.

You are such an inspiration Ruby! We took our kids to the Indianapolis Children’s Museum and I just BAWLED at their exhibit over your experience.

To me, 1950 really isn't thAt long ago when I think of what my Black ancestors have been through from the moment they stepped foot onto the soil of this country.

Wow this just made me cry. Her energy her vibe her words her demeanor and her story are so beautiful. We need more people like her in this world

She is truly amazing and a strong person! 😍

I don't think there should be a dislike icon for a video like this, it should be disabled. if you someone consciously press dislike for such inspirational video, you are nothing but a sick person. 😢

i admire people who have great faith ...

Thank you Ruby for your courage, resilience, kindness and for sharing your story! The shameful history of this "great" country is abhorrent and the reason why there is an agenda to erase this history by banning the information. Truth will always prevail!

Absolutely beautiful and moving!

I have the utmost admiration for Ruby and her mother who gave her the tools to be a self-confident girl, then a woman who was comfortable in who she was/is. That being said, it is also important to recognize Mrs. Henry's role in shaping who she would become. She accepted her unconditionally and taught her far more than reading, writing and arithmetic.

love the story of Ruby Bridges I believe it can teach Us a lot. I wish that we had more people who understood the love of God, love for people, and respect for one another People. say beauty is only skin deep so it's color! Amen

That was so moving - tears in my eyes. Thank you for your big heart Ruby Bridges.

She is such a lovely gem of human being ! She has such a lovely spiritual, kind personality!

She doesn’t look at a day over 40

I remember, I remember slavery until Ruby Bridges and many others came we are learning in school and I won’t stop fighting for rights if that day comes.

Carla Linton. We as God's Children need to overcome Racism in America and love one another as The Holy Bible Commands us to do and stop the racism and the hatred and the bigotry in America. Because one thing about it God is not pleased with the Racism, hatred, and the bigotry. He is displeased with it We need to get it together.

I love you Ruby! As a hispanic growing up in the 90's i never experienced these type of henious acts and stereotypes so i can only imagine how it was 30 years prior. Love for all and hate for none! Always! ♥️

"It all has to do with Love", and I loved your testimony. Me and my daughter finished reading your book recently. It was part of her March madness book club at school. I'm going to show her this video as well. So happy to see that your making an impact on so many lives. Even though you might not have known what was going on when you were younger, God did, and I'm sure he is sooo proud of you!!! God bless!!! ♥️

Your a beautiful woman and i look up to you I'm so glad your alive and well with jesus I love you

Beautiful woman. Her story affected me from a young age. Showing me the true face of racism.

What an incredibly courageous girl and family that went through that. It’s amazing what she has done with her legacy.

Completely wonderful interview on how Ms. Ruby dealt with such a critical time period in history. Imagine...she was a SIX(6) YEARS OLD pretty little girl & had to learn how to show tolerance along with perseverance through trials & tribulations caused by racism. To look at Ms. Ruby now, absolutely timeless with a gorgeous glowing, radiant complexion. She's so beautiful & have such a gentle lovely spirit...ONLY JEHOVAH & JESUS CHRIST could grant to her as a reward. What a wonderful beauty secret.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

this is such a beautiful story, the compassion she had despite her experience makes me so hopeful, especially with today’s current climate! 🖤

Thank God for the goodness and kindness in her heart! Her perspective could have been so different, but by God's grace, she is a shining example of God's love and grace towards people. Love Her!

Carla Linton. Ruby Bridges is a Brave Black Woman. She inspires me.

As they say' and a child shall lead us''

She is so beautiful wow! It’s so hard to watch this. Hearts my soul

At school we are learning this and btw this is my dads phone and I'm in 4th grade and my teacher has a book about you...Then we READ it and My teacher said that your still alive!!!! I was proud wut you did and brave

Hello Ruby. Today on Martin Luther King Day, I explained in 8-year-old language to my granddaughter who were are. Showing her the footage of you going up those school steps. How courageous and your story will remain with her. Thank you.

Thank you Mrs. Bridges. Your legacy is an inspiration to many of us. God bless you and your entire generation..!

One of the most common misconceptions is that courage is about being fearless. It isn't about fearlessness. What courage is About doing what you're most afraid of because you know that it's the right thing to do.

Such an amazing and humble soul. I named my daughter Ruby after her.

What an inspirational story! Thank you Ruby Bridges!!

I just found about her for the first from a Facebook today and came to find out more. She really is beautiful, strong and inspirational black woman.

I’m doing a project on ruby she just seems so independent and I love that🥺❤️

Wow just touched my heart and mind ❤️🙏🏾

Ms. Bridges, you are a beautiful woman. Beautiful smile and very youthful appearance 😀. Glad The Heavenly Father was with you all the way 🙏. He gave you the determine and courage to keep it moving. Although Satan tried to stop you, God carried you through. Everyone can't be scared or nothing would get done. I commend you for braveness. God is going to have the last day so concerning all human living on this Earth. So whatever you went through it will be brought up again and those that took part will have to answer to a Holy God concerning your school experience.

This is a very inspirational story. When I was a little girl growing up in NYC,I did not know about racism. It wasn't until I attended high school that I noticed it.

Very inspiring video, I was a baby at the time of her integrating this school. I remember, however, when I was about eight years old, African Americans in my community integrated the white schools in my community. As I got older I began to understand that the black race isn't liked by some white, therefore, experiencing discrimination from some of my Caucasian teachers.

My mother grew up, In a segregated part of Louisiana with her 2 other sister. My grandma and used to tell me stories about growing up there. I remember when I was younger my mom and I always watched Ruby Bridges together. And it was kind of way Represented my mother life when she younger and the best way she could explain was this movie, , And till this day she has a picture of Ruby Bridges walking into school. & To keep pushing.

Ruby Bridge just came to my school a few weeks ago

Thank you for giving me a good education Ruby♥️

Dear Ruby bridges I apologize on behalf of the world for all that you have to go through as a little girl and thank you for being brave. I feel you very deep that words can not explain. God bless you

Oh dang god we finally have stuff intagrated shout out to u ruby bridge keep up the good work😀

I am 8 years old and ruby bridges inspired me ruby is a good person

Like Mother Teresa said we should love one another just as God loves us

Amazing to hear from her! God Bless her🙏🏽✝️

I so enjoyed watching this! It is all about love...🇨🇦

She's a inspiration to me for ever we were watching this video in class today when she said the n word at the playground I told everybody it's not funny she went through a lot she was brave going through those mobs she's loves by God and Jesus and me I love Ruby bridges.😥😥😪😪⭐⭐♥️♥️

Thank God for brave parents! Now you are a legend! You didn’t understand the risks but your parents did!

So simple yet so profound love is the key and the cure that heals racism.

We looove you Ruby! Thanks !!!

What a wonderful woman! God bless her!

God bless Ruby’s teacher that what u call a beautiful decent human being.

I think of her parents and how brave they were! They sent her little daughter to school, knowing the others will reject her; they trusted on her and raised a kind and mature woman. As a parent, sometimes, I feel discouraged to let my kids participate in events or go to places because I do not want them to feel discriminated. Her interview made me think about the wrong idea I to stay in our bubbles; this makes things harder; just brave people enter in other bubbles and make space for diversity and inclusion.

You are the bravest person I’ve ever seen

Ruby is so brave i can't belive she went through this situation.

That is so sad, and her heart is so full and beautiful that she never even felt hate against the racists.
