Little Rock Nine by Megan Logsdon

Little Rock Nine
Megan Logsdon
  • Nine Black African American students were prevented from entering Arkansas' Little Rock Central High School, also known as the "Little Rock Crisis"
  • Governor Orval Faubus called in national guard to stop students at the door
  • Faubus closed all public schools in Little Rock
  • The students helped de-segregation of public schools to take a huge step forward in the South
"Smile, no matter what. Remember, not everyone approved of what Jesus did, but that didn't stop him."
