Why is little rock 9 so important?
Simply: The Little Rock Nine is important because it set a precedent that the President would enforce the US Supreme Court's policy of desegregation no matter how entrenched Southern support for segregation would be.Longer Explanation: Little Rock is the capital of Arkansas and Arkansas, like many other Southern states, implemented discriminatory Jim Crow Laws which prevented Blacks and Whites from going to school together. However, the US Supreme Court had recently invalidated segregation through its Brown v. Board of Education decision in 1954. A public school in Little Rock, Arkansas became the first forcibly integrated school and nine Black children were sent to what was previously an All-White school.Many Whites were very resistant to the implementation of desegregation and equality and threatened brutality. The Governor of Arkansas agreed with the Whites and called in the National Guard to prevent the Black children from attending the school. President Eisenhower was required to send the US military in to end the National Guard blockade and allow the children to go to school.
