How would you feel if you were one of the little rock 9?

These students were determined and strong, but also had to have felt fear and apprehension as they worked to bring racial integration to Little Rock Central High School.

Following the Supreme Court decision in Brown v. The Board of Education (1954), schools were slow to end segregation.  In the fall of 1957, nine black students enrolled at Little Rock Central High.  The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) had been involved in choosing students who were capable of facing the pressure of the situation, and had provided them with counseling and training to get them ready for what they would face as they sought to attend the formerly all-white school.  Situations did become tense, and President Eisenhower eventually sent federal troops to protect the students as they went to attend the school.

Primary sources are usually  more accurate and are written by someone who experienced it or witnessed it. secondary sources are those who heard of it after the fact that can lose details and or twist the event in a light that benefits them.
