Louisiana officials have placed a new historical marker making the school integrated by Ruby Bridges in 1960 part of the state's Civil Rights Trail
NEW ORLEANS — — The New Orleans school that was desegregated by a young Ruby Bridges in 1960 officially became a stop on the Louisiana Civil Rights Trail as a marker commemorating the event was unveiled Thursday.
“She walked these stairs and not only changed the course of integration in this city, but also the course of history. This is never lost on us as a staff and a student body," said Principal Jasmine Graves Black-Clemons said."We are grateful for her sacrifice."
