50 Years ago today

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
On Sept. 23, 1957, nine black high school students were greeted by an angry mob of more than 1,000 Little Rock residents protesting the integration of Little Rock Central High School. Before long, police had to escort the students to safety . This fall, Little Rock will celebrate the 50th anniversary of that pivotal moment. We asked Eddie Gonzalez, a senior program director for the National Park Foundation, to give us the lowdown on the anniversary.

I did my high school term paper on the Little Rock Nine.

I remember watching a docudrama about it way back when. I'm surprised I haven't heard anything else about it today.
