The Pearsall Plan, which was a response of the North Carolina to the ruling of the United States Supreme Court on the unconstitutionality of racial segregation in public schools.
Created in 1956, Pearsall Plan sought a moderate approach to mix their public schools, however, in the bid to achieve their goal, the plan gave reason the state (North Carolina) should amend her Constitution, to reach common ground on the issue. The following are the reasons given:
1. to give the legislature the power to pass new laws: this enable the legislature to passed legislation that delay the integration.
2. to discourage racial mixing: there is also amendment of Compulsory School Attendance Law which excused students from going to integrated schools, there by discouraging racial mixing in public schools.
3. to retain public support of school: the plan seek to give more power to the school board which in turn, helps to retain public school supports.

Voices, thunderings
The reference you have in mind is from chapter 8 of the Revelation of Jesus Christ to John. Here's the section as quoted from the King James Version:
"Another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake" (Revelation 8:3-5 KJV).
