What do you want to know more of about the little rock nine. write in 3 sentences.

I would like to know more about their experiences during their studies in the school and in the class rooms. Most importantly, I would like to know how their experience affected their academic performance. It would also be useful to know about other similar instances which might have taken place in other previously racially segregated schools.

Explanation:

On 17th May 1954, The U.S Supreme Court had issues its historic order to desegregate all segregated schools.  After the decision, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) started its efforts to register colored students in previously segregated schools of the Southern United States. Little Rock Central High School was such of many schools. NAACP selected nine black students to be enrolled in this school based on their academic performance. The students were initially barred entrance into the school. But later by the executive orders of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and under the protection of U.S. Army paratroopers, the students were allowed to enter, enroll and study in the school. The nine students of this group are known the Little Rock Nine.

read this excerpt from “incidents in the life of a slave girl.”

i went about my evening work with trembling steps. mr. flint twice called from his chamber door to inquire why the house was not locked up. i replied that i had not done my work. "you have had time enough to do it," said he. "take care how you answer me! "

i shut all the windows, locked all the doors, and went up to the third story, to wait till midnight. how long those hours seemed, and how fervently i prayed that god would not forsake me in this hour of utmost need! i was about to risk everything on the throw of a die; and if i failed, o what would become of me and my poor children? they would be made to suffer for my fault.

at half past twelve i stole softly down stairs. i stopped on the second floor, thinking i heard a noise. i felt my way down into the parlor, and looked out of the window. the night was so intensely dark that i could see nothing. i raised the window very softly and jumped out. large drops of rain were falling, and the darkness bewildered me. i dropped on my knees, and breathed a short prayer to god for guidance and protection. i groped my way to the road, and rushed towards the town with almost lightning speed.
