Answer:

She was expelled from school for pouring a bowl of chili on a racist boy's head.

Explanation:

Minnijean Brown is an African American activist. She was one of Little Rock Nine, a group of nine African American teenager students who in 1957 were admitted extraordinarily to a white-only school, the Little Rock Central High School.

Minnijean, still an activist, was suspended from school after only three months, in December 1957, for pouring a bowl full of chili on white students, after many of them discriminated her.

As an adult and after getting married, Minnijean continued to be an activist for the protection of minority rights. She lived in Canada between 1980 and 1990, involved in the activism of some students at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario, after graduating from Carleton University in Ottawa. Recently, Minnijean moved to Little Rock again, where she lives with her mother and sister.
