Description
Amid statewide controversy over how African American history is taught in Florida schools, a movie on civil rights icon Ruby Bridges is now under review after a St. Petersburg parent filed a complaint stating the movie teaches students racial slurs and that “white people hate black people.”
The North Shore Elementary School parent filed the complaint on March 6, after about 60 second grade students watched the “Ruby Bridges” movie as part of a Black History Month lesson.
Ruby Bridges made history as a 6-year-old child when she became the first Black student to desegregate an all-white school in New Orleans in 1960. She had to be escorted to school by federal marshals and once told CBS News she spent the entire school year in a classroom with just her and a teacher after white parents pulled their children from her class in protest.
