Blog à destination des élèves du collège Joliot Curie (69500 Bron) mis en place par M. Hattais (Anglais) et Mme Parisi (Italien) en 2013

Ruby Bridges

She was the first black girl to go to a black school.
A federal policeman came to her house and escorted the family to school.
He gave her advice because there was a hateful / racist / violent demonstration.
People had crual placards with "White Only" or "No Coloreds here".
The parents in the school were shocked. They took they children away.
The director and secretary were disgusted when Ruby arrived and when she wanted to go to the washroom.

At the end of the day, Ruby was both happy and disappointed because people were horrible and she didn't learn anything.

Vocab:
a US marshal
