Ruby Nell Bridges Hall was born in 1954 and is the first African American child to desegregate William Frantz Elementary School. Ruby's school district had entrance exams for African American students, which determined if African American students can compete academically at an all-white school. Ruby passed and was sent to an all-white McDonough Elementary School. She had to be escorted by four federal marshalls, and despite the difficulties of being an outsider, the girl did not miss a single day of school. Ruby made a shift in public perception and today continues to be a civil rights activist as an adult. She founded The Ruby Bridges Foundation that helps promote tolerance and positive change through education.

The 62 American icons selected for this NFT series represent people who wholeheartedly believed in dignity, strived for freedom, and fiercely fought for human rights.

The concept of this NFT series is to shine a light on actual heroes of the real world who have dedicated their entire lives to battling evil and inequality long before the emergence of fictional superheroes. Modern pop culture has elevated and idolized protagonists with superpowers and they have become somewhat of a cult. Films about superheroes are a success at the box office, attracting millions of people around the world whilst superhero characters are deemed as aspirational.
