Answer 1

In 1957, nine African American students called the Little Rock Nine tried to integrate Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas after the Supreme Court said school segregation was illegal. They were met with angry mobs and resistance from the state government until President Eisenhower sent federal troops to escort and protect them. The event was a turning point because it showed the federal government would enforce desegregation and helped inspire more protests and laws that pushed the civil rights movement forward.
