For this week’s #19ForThe19th challenge, Defenders of Human Rights, from @usnatarchives we’re honoring Ruby Doris Smith Robinson, one of the leaders of the Atlanta Student Movement and the only woman to ever serve as Executive Secretary for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. The Mary Ann Smith Wilson-Ruby Doris Smith Robinson collection on student activism is available for research at our Archives Research Center, and for more information on the Atlanta Student Movement and the battle for civil rights, check out our digital exhibit, Seeking to Tell A Story: http://digitalexhibits.auctr.edu/exhibits/show/seekingtotell
