After the Brown v. Board of Education ruling, slowly schools started desegregating. • “With all deliberate speed”
The Little Rock Nine were a group of African-American students enrolled in Little Rock Central High School in 1957.
Students were prevented from entering the school by order of the governor.
Elizabeth Eckford • “He raised his bayonet, and then the other guards moved in and raised their bayonets.”
President Eisenhower stepped in to forcibly desegregate the school
