Virtual Story Time with Commissioner Felicia Franklin Warner Saturday, August 29, 2020

Aug 27, 2020

Join Clayton County District 3 Commissioner Felicia Franklin Warner as she reads “The Story of Ruby Bridges”. This beautiful picture book, illustrated by Coretta Scott King Award-illustrator George Ford, and written by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Robert Coles, tells the true story of six-year-old Ruby Bridges.

In 1960, Ruby, a young African-American girl, entered a whites-only school in New Orleans. Even though she had to pass through crowds of angry protesters, Ruby bravely walked into the school. Every day for months, Ruby persevered. White parents pulled their children out of the school, and Ruby and her teacher were alone in the classroom. Still, Ruby and her family would not give in. This book is read with the permission of Scholastic.
