I had the privilege to meet Mrs Tate at Dooky Chases Restaurant in New Orleans. Got a picture with her too. It was by far beyond anything I've ever experienced. I actually cried, I was just beyond moved at what SHE DID FOR US. Living legend.
I’m from New Orleans and attended the historic ribbon 🎀 cutting ceremony!! My cousins attended McDonald 19, and my aunts were school teachers there in the 90’s. What a powerful memorial to the New Orleans 4️⃣ didn’t learn of this until the day of the ceremony 💖
The fact that I didn’t learn about these 3 until a few years ago (I knew about Ruby though) proves how history is being erased from people who don’t want people to learn the truth.
I just cannot fathom how people can have as much hatred and vitriol as those protestors showed, especially towards little children, and especially in regards to something as inconsequential as race. I’m glad that they had each other to rely on, at least. What a traumatic experience. Some of those protestors are probably still alive today. I hope that everyday they remember this and hang their heads in deep, deep shame.
@honestybest8797 No it’s not. People of all races have committed horrific atrocities over the years, including in recent history. The answer isn’t white people, it’s just people. Some people can be unbelievably cruel and unethical - people of all races. And some people are kind and good - people of all races. Calling an entire race evil doesn’t make you one of the good ones. It makes you as bad as the people that you’re criticising.
@@justanotherhappyhumanist8832 In this particular situation it was wyte adults and children.There has never been a situation like this where blacks have never been held accountable.
@@Nubian865 What are you talking about? There are plenty of situations where black people have committed horrific atrocities and not been held accountable. Just look at the Rwandan genocide as but one of many examples. That was a situation where, even though all the people involved were black (the victims and perpetrators), they still managed to make the issue about race - the Tutsis (and any moderate Hutus who supported them) were horrifically tortured, oppressed, and killed by the Hutus. Unfortunately, there are many other similar situations just involving black races, no white people needed. The sad thing is that mistreating people because of their perceived differences is something that many people - of all races - do, and have always done. Even if the whole world was black, people would still find differences in one another, and commit atrocities against each other because of that. It’s something that already happens and has always happened. Anyway, our social conception of race doesn’t even make sense from a scientific point of view. We’re all just part of the human race, and that’s what really matters. It’s just tragic that there will always be people out there more interested in division and hatred, than love and inclusion. Our goal, as ethical humans, should be to try to minimise that division and hatred, by understanding that it’s not someone’s race, looks, gender, sexuality, or anything else that they can’t help that matters - what truly matters is our values and our capacity to love and help one another.
No love is what it was and still is - HATE. They are still traumatized, I can tell. This cannot be fathomed by those who are love and yes statues would be a lasting reminder to always remember and never forget.
This whole story is moving, but hearing the lady recount how she had to be on nerve medicine, being hit in the stomach with a baseball bat, getting beat up in a classroom, spat at and spit in the food...I was feeling angry real quick! They were such brave little girls, and incredible women. 💙🙏🏾
@abiola33 I agree. People who can treat innocent little kids like this with no shame, clearly don’t have a heart or soul in their body. All that physical abuse they received for doing absolutely nothing but trying to go to school and get the same quality of education as their white peers.
@cornpopper4921 At least these 3 little girls were in school like they were suppose to be. What were the protesters doing?? Taking many days off from work to torture and scare a little school. White teenagers ditched many days of school to part take in this instead of being in class learning🤷🏽♀️
I worked with Gail for several years. She is a beautiful soul. I’ve had the opportunity to sit and listen to their story from Gail. What an amazing, moving story. I’m blessed to count Gail as a friend.
This is why black history is so important! I am born and raised in Louisiana and have never heard of these three women. Thank you ladies for your strength, courage, and dedication to empowering and bettering our people!
I agree. The only reason I even heard about Ruby was b/c when I was in 6th grade, I was flipping through channels one day and saw the movie about her playing on The Wonderful World if Disney on ABC.
Watching this from the Caribbean isle of Trinidad and Tobago..and i teared up after 5 minutes..the trauma these 3 women went through as little girls is gut wrenching...these stories can't remain hidden..these women are pioneers blessed by the ancestors 👊🏽
Hey Donna! Apologies for dropping this here I came across your TH-cam channel and I would love to know you better.

I’m from New Orleans and my mom used to tell me all that she went through once she made it in class, and she too said the same stories these ladies tell about their experiences. We should be grateful for them and their sacrifices.
Yep the reason our family headed west in 1950 s from Mississippi and New Orleans. Even tho California had undertones and systemic racism ……my fam got out so we could have a better life in the San Francisco area
I had to teach myself a lot of this information on what people like these 3 women went through. When I was 11, I was flipping through channels and came across the autobiography movie about Ruby Bridges on Disney Channel and started watching it.
Some of them are probably still living themselves. I often wonder how their children feel seeing old footage of their parents, grandparents etc. yelling racial slurs at people because of their skin let alone little children.
I never heard this story before. I do know that I will never forget it. Praying these ladies are at peace with the hate and trauma they experienced through that ordeal. They have my heart and I admire them so much 🙏❤
Thank you for sharing this story. With a humble heart, I want to say thank you for being the first, thank you for your courage, strength and determination. Thank you for being the change! Because of all of you, my education exist. Thank you isn't enough.
I am amazed at their composure through all of this. They suffered and open the door and now we make excuses for not succeeding academically. God help us!

Seeing this makes it even more sad that a lot of children don't even want to go to school today. They drop out, live a life of crime. These women and others like them sacrificed so much for us. I am so grateful.
I can’t believe they just told us this story about those three little girls went to the other school in New Orleans. I wonder if Ruby Bridges ever got to meet those other three girls?!
Chilling as I hear my mom & aunt tell me their stories & they were older than these ladies were. I thank our generations so much for going through that to improve the world for future generations. 💜💜
Well done! Loved how the school was converted to housing for seniors w/historical preservation … (great social change component) from Leslie Williams NYC 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Who knew???? What a powerful story and there are many more untold stories like this one. Thank you ladies for the sacrifice you each made then, for enlightening us all now, and for the legacy you are creating for generations to come. It is marvelous that you are educating the community as well as helping our elders have a comfortable place to reside. God bless you greatly.
I grew up 6 blocks from Frantz Middle. I knew about Ms. Bridges but I never heard this story. You can see the pain and trauma on their faces. Listening to their story felt like carrying a thousand concrete bricks. The hatred is still there. Some just want to party.. some still see us in chains. Neither group cares really. The audacity is real.. their trying to erase. They can't. No flood waters can wash that blood away...
People always say we should forget about things and don’t look into the past but when we do it still hurts and you can see it on those three women faces.
They can't forget like I can't forget. My integration story happened in New Orleans' neighbor Jefferson Parish. They have the right to tell their stories and no ban on real black history can stop these beautiful Queens!
I wish I had seen this interview, but I was at work. My mother is from Nolensville, Tennessee and her and her older two brothers was in school when it first integrated. She didn’t talk much about it because it was nothing positive that she couldn’t even tell about it and you can still see the current years later and she’s almost 70. That’s why when people try to act like it’s so far in the past and stuff. A lot of these people are still alive. It’s not the past for them.
Thank you. I am 49 and never heard of this! But if you think about it, every state in the South had to be integrated. There are more heroes and sheroes we need to research...
What a phenomenal story. Those women were so strong as kids. They survived the unimaginable. Their and their families sacrifices made this country a better place.
This was happening all over the country at that time. My Mother told me they came to her school (Union Springs, Alabama) to pick specific students. So many undocumented Civil Rights stories. Salute to these women and the countless other. Blessings
I'm disgusted, shocked, and amazed, all at the same time. Just to think that what these little girls went through. Just wow! May they walk in peace for the rest of their lives.
Thanks for sharing this!!! I never heard about this and I’m from Central Louisiana, my husband is from New Orleans and didn’t even know of this🙏🏾🙏🏾💕 I’m sharing this with everyone I know such an amazing and truly beautiful story these ladies are bold & beautiful ‼️
The idea that full on adults among others on that day, set out to terrorize 6 year old children. And then to traumatized them IN SCHOOL. This was not that long ago. Truly disgraceful, animalistic behavior.
I don’t mean to sound superficial with what I’m about to say but…those little skirts, sweaters, ponytails w bows and shiny loafers they had on are SOOOOOO FREGGIN CUTE 🥰 I wish little girls still dressed like this bcuz they were absolutely ADORABLE ♥️♥️♥️
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐 Deepest regards and utmost Respect for what was placed on the precious shoulders of each of these women- then young girls. Neither of you deserved any of that ever. I'm so sorry that you endured such senseless, ignorant vitriol. Bless you all to the moon and may your endeavors be as successful as your character. You are each true examples of living history that must be told again and again.
That's why it's important for us not to take anything for granted.and to never forget our history.we have endured alot but also kept moving forward to brighter days.thess ladies represent.a powerful legacy of our people with resilience and grace.. 🙏 ❤️
We truly appreciate the courage through the struggle. The strength of our FBA (Foundational Black Americans) women and people is indisputable. It’s a miracle that we’re still on this planet ✊🏽 ♥️ 🇺🇸
I have heard of the little girl in Arkansas and those high school from the 60s but never heard of these women. No child should have to endure that. Much love and respect to them all.
a statue of the three girls should be erected in front of the school so that the story will never be forgotten. This so important!!
Great idea. Why don't you contact the New Orleans City Council and suggest it.
Omg that is a beautiful idea! Marvelous!💜🙌🏾🦋
Agreed!!! I would pay to see it
I agree. This is a part of our history. The story should live on.
