Federal troops escorted nine brave Black students into Little Rock Central High School, enforcing desegregation.
🎓 A Sonnet for Integration:
They walked through walls of spit and shouted hate,
Their books held tight like shields against the storm.
Though fear and rage stood guard at every gate,
They carved a path to make the future form...#LittleRockNine #ThisDayInHistory #Desegregation #Poetry #CivilRights #EshuElegbara
