Write a hook for Ruby Bridges! For those who do not know what a hook is, its a sentence at the start of an essay that grabs the readers attention.

Ruby Bridges was the first black child to cross an invisible line and enter an all white school. She was just six years old when she first arrived at that school in New Orleans on November 14, 1960. On Ruby's first day, a large crowd of angry white people gathered outside the Franz Elementary School. The people carried signs that said they didn't want black children in a white school. People called Ruby names; some wanted to hurt her. She stuck through a year of injustices and at the end, there were more.

            The lesson she wanted us to learn, when she spoke to us, was that there are always going to be injustices, but if we just get to know people, prejudices will no longer exist.

            Now, Ruby has established The Ruby Bridges Foundation. She has a website that you can visit at www.rubybridges.net. I think that Ruby Bridges is a truly amazing person. She was a very courageous girl, walking into that school and facing that mob. And, even more, she prayed forthem!

            "Please, God, try to forgive those people

            Because even if they say those bad things,

            Just like You did those folks a long time ago

            When they said terrible things about You."

            Ruby Bridges was a huge part of the history of the civil rights movement. What she did was an inspiration to many kids, parents, and teachers. She inspired integration of blacks and whites in the schools in the South. Today she is 45 years old, and she gives speeches at schools. She has even established a foundation to help underprivileged children become successful students. So, in conclusion, I think Ruby Bridges is a great inspiration to all children everywhere.

the assassination of president lincoln was just one part of a larger plot to decapitate the federal government of the u.s. after the civil war. the first reaction to lincoln’s death was disbelief. then it quickly changed to grief. abraham lincoln’s death created an outpouring of grief from citizens in both the north and the south.

explanation:

lincoln was the first u.s. president to be assassinated. president abraham lincoln, america’s civil war leader, was assassinated just five days after confederate general robert e. lee surrendered his army at appomattox court house, ending the four-year war between the states. on the evening of april 14, 1865, lincoln was attending a performance of our american cousin at ford’s theatre in washington, d.c. john wilkes booth – a 26-year old actor, confederate sympathizer, and white supremacist – slipped into the presidential box and shot lincoln in the head. john wilkes booth and his conspirators had initially planned to kidnap lincoln to save the confederate states. but as the confederacy faltered, booth’s thoughts turned to murder. booth may have decided to act on his hatred after lincoln endorsed giving the right to vote to african-american men who had served in the union army.
