Answer:
Under escort from the U.S. Army’s 101st Airborne Division, nine Black students enter all-white Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. Three weeks earlier, Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus had surrounded the school with National Guard troops to prevent its federal court-ordered racial integration. After a tense standoff, President Dwight D. Eisenhower federalized the Arkansas National Guard and sent 1,000 army paratroopers to Little Rock to enforce the court order.
On May 17, 1954, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka that racial segregation in educational facilities was unconstitutional. Five days later, the Little Rock School Board issued a statement saying it would comply with the decision when the Supreme Court outlined the method and time frame in which desegregation should be implemented.

Arkansas was at the time among the more progressive Southern states in regard to racial issues. The University of Arkansas School of Law was integrated in 1949, and the Little Rock Public Library in 1951. Even before the Supreme Court ordered integration to proceed “with all deliberate speed,” the Little Rock School Board in 1955 unanimously adopted a plan of integration to begin in 1957 at the high school level. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) filed suit, arguing the plan was too gradual, but a federal judge dismissed the suit, saying that the school board was acting in “utmost good faith.” Meanwhile, Little Rock’s public buses were desegregated. By 1957, seven out of Arkansas’ eight state universities were integrated.

It was rainy morning and I was worried whether I should go to school or not. It was our farewell party at school and I really wanted to be there to enjoy the last day at school. The rain started to begin with heavy showers and my dad refused to drop me to school. I was really upset that I am unable to enjoy my last day at school. It was afternoon and I was still missing my friends, suddenly door bell ringed. When I opened the door I was surprise to see my friends who attended the farewell and came to my home with food boxes. I welcomed them and we started to enjoy our day. We had gossips, played games and enjoyed the delicious food. We enjoyed the entire day with lots of food and gossip. It was a different kind of happiness altogether.
