Whoa! I too am impressed that they went back after hearing the "responsible" adults throw up their hands and give up. <BR/><BR/>I remember seeing the pictures in a history book when I was high school age, and being amazed that adults could look that malignant in public. I am still amazed - most people fortunately don't have experience with being in a mob.<BR/><BR/>The Little Rock school deseg. situation was the only thing I knew about Little Rock or Arkansas until Bill Clinton ran for President. I wonder if it is as racist as ever. I know that a small portion of Little Rock (state univ. district?) elected a white lesbian to the state legislature. But I don't know much about the racial composition of the legislature. The rural areas can't be much different from outstate Missouri, which has some white supremacy groups.<BR/><BR/>NancyPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-32548277609425007242007-09-25T19:29:00.000-05:002007-09-25T19:29:00.000-05:00When I see the films of mobs and savage police off...When I see the films of mobs and savage police officers, I wonder why they chose to spend their time that way, and the contrast between them and their targets. That woman had nothing more important to do than to scream, harass, and threaten Miss Eckford, and Miss Eckford had nothing more important to do than go to school.<BR/><BR/>I can think of three attitudes regarding struggle: ignore, forget, and incorporate. I would say this post falls in the last category; you learn from and honor the fight, knowing this will help you in the next one. The first is for those who like to think nothing was ever wrong, and the middle is the idea that everything's fine now.<BR/><BR/>ABB, I just know you have some recipes that constitute <I>a steady diet of Civil Rights</I>.~Macarena~https://www.blogger.com/profile/04293093033103987629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-50628542624343984512007-09-25T18:52:00.000-05:002007-09-25T18:52:00.000-05:00ABB- this was an awesome post as always.Jeff- the ...ABB- this was an awesome post as always.<BR/>Jeff- the white girl's name was Hazel Bryan Massery, and she apologized 40 years later.

A whole generation fought for our safety in those schools and now we have boys facing 1/3 of their lives in prison for a school incident policed only when they fought back & black professors receiving death threats and bags of feces outside their doors . . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
