He did not. Governor Faubus used the Arkansas National Guard to resist the racial integration of Arkansas schools. President Eisenhower used the 101st Airborne Division to enforce the racial integration of Arkansas schools. The schools were integrated, and they did not fight, but if they had the smart money would have been on the One-Oh-One.
Dwight Eisenhower sent troops to Little Rock to force integration of Central High there.
President Eisenhower did not agree with the decision of the Supreme Court in Brown vs Board of Education that educational institutions in the South were unequal and segregation hurt students who did not get an "equal" education. He felt the decision was a mistake. But, as President he was sworn to uphold the law and enforce the law. Eisenhower was a constitutionalist and to him, the Court's ruling had the force of law. Governor Faubus of Arkansas was defying the Court's order so Eisenhower took over command of the National Guard and ordered troops to enforce the integration of Central High School.
I believe that he did do this. He also served as a general in the army. The first United States visit by a Sovian leader happened while he was president.
President Jackson did not enforce the ruling
He sent federal troops to oversee the integration of Central High School in Little Rock
He wasn't president then - Eisenhower was. Eisenhower did intervene.
