Pride (In The Name of Love)

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day! Keep the dream alive!


Here is a video interview I conducted a few years back with Ruby Bridges for Norman Rockwell Museum. Ms. Bridges was one of the first African American children to integrate the elementary schools in New Orleans back in 1960. Her historic walk inspired artist Norman Rockwell, who three years later painted The Problem We All Live With.
