Ruby Dee, RIP -- June 13, 2014


I was sad to learn that actress and civil rights activist Ruby Dee has died.  I remember watching and reading her and her husband Ossie Davis for most of my life.  She played Rachel Robinson in The Jackie Robinson Story.  She finally got an Oscar nomination in 2007.  She belonged to CORE in the 1960s.
