The Brown vs Board of Education movement began in Little Rock, Arkansas. A group of parents formed a circle around Central High in Little Rock, Arkansas, to prevent black students from entering that school. President Eisenhower sent Federal Marshals to escort them into the school. Governor Faubus called out the National Guard to prevent black students from attending Central High in Little Rock. President Eisenhower then Nationalized the National Guard Unit and sent in the 101th Airborne. Soon the protestors backed down.

Protests nest arose in New Orleans. Anywhere protests arose. Eisenhower would send in the army. Soon the protestors gave up. Schools were integrated, or at least the protest movement ended.

A massive "White flight" began out of majority black areas. White people moved out of areas with majority black populations.
