Ruby Hurley was born in 1909. After graduating from law school, she worked in the NAACP’s Birmingham, AL office. She helped Medgar Evers investigate the murder of Emmett Till. Her work was so successful she fled Alabama in the summer of 1956 after the state outlawed the NAACP. https://t.co/lDuqk2WJQK — PolitiTweet.org
