Ruby Bridges - Barbara Henry

Time: Monday Nov 14, 1960

Place: New Orleans, Louisiana, U.S.

Details: As soon as Bridges entered the school, white parents pulled their own children out; all the teachers except for one refused to teach while a black child was enrolled. Only one person agreed to teach Bridges and that was Barbara Henry, from Boston, Massachusetts, and for over a year Henry taught her alone, "as if she were teaching a whole class."
