In the text, "Nine African American students were chosen to go to the school in 1952. A lot of people in Little Rock did not like the idea and tried to stop them from getting to their classes." This shows that at first, most people did not like Little Rock Nine.
In the text, "The supreme court said segregation was against the constitution. One of the first places where people tried to end segregation was Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas." This shows that people wanted an end to segregation because it was racist and foolish.
In my own words, I believe that because segregation was allowed, people should have been arrested for this. It doesn't make any sense that people should be segregated based on color.
Secondly, black people shouldn't have different education based on their looks they can't control.
In my opinion, segregation should have not been allowed, schools are judging people based on their race and putting them into different schools with different learning education, I also think that black people are just smart as other people, but people would not care. For example, The supreme court said segregation was against the constitution." This shows that even though white people segregate schools it was against the law.
