This Is Your Time

 

This is Ruby Bridges' autobiographical love letter to the children of today.  Published just recently, it compares the struggles she faced during desegregation in the 1960's to those still present today and calls on the children to lead the way out.  Each page has her letter on one side and photos on the other, documenting her words.  I actually got goosebumps reading her words and seeing the images of the world she lived in, and the images from the world still unchanged in many ways.  (BIO BRI)
