Ruby Duncan
Ruby Phillips Duncan (born June 7, 1932 in Tallulah, Louisiana) is an activist fighting for welfare rights for the poor in Las Vegas, Nevada. She was also the founder of the organization Operation Life. == Early Life: 1932-1953 ==
Her parents were poor black sharecroppers, and the majority of her early life was spent laboring in the cotton fields from May through October and attending a black school eight miles away from November through April. Both her parents had died by the time she turned four and from that point on she lived with relatives in Tallulah. She left Louisiana for Las Vegas in 1953 to live with an aunt, working as a house maid and later as a hotel maid.
