To take on the world at 9 years old. And to change it at 12 years old.
Guess it would be listed as an EC on her college applications.
According to https://www.biography.com/people/linda-brown-21134187 , she later attended Washburn University and Kansas State University.
She and her family were very courageous.
Many act as if we are so far removed from racism and segregation. The fact that Brown just passed, and passed at a fairly young age shows we are not that far removed. Had he not been killed, MLK Jr might have still been alive today.

RIP Linda Brown. Thank the Lord for you and Ruby Bridges. Children of remarkable courage. And their parents, too.
