Slide 14 - Diapositive

5.1: incident in Little Rock (Arkansas, 1957)
  • the Supreme Court ruled that segregation in schools is unconstitutional and must me abolished.
  • The state of Arkansas must obey the decision by the supreme court.
  • Governor Faubus of Arkansas must execute that order. (= make it happen) and allow colored students to go to white schools.

Slide 15 - Diapositive

Faubus cleverly tried to avoid this order by the S.C.
In short he reasoned that he had two conflicting tasks:
  • end segregation
  • keep order and prevent riots

  • I can't do one without breaking the other.
  • keeping order is more important therefore I can not end segregation (which will cause riots)


Slide 16 - Diapositive

Faubus disobeyed the Supreme Court.

Now the president (Eisenhower) acted. He ordered Faubus to end segregation.
Faubus: okay, then it is your responsibility when people are killed. 

Eisenhower then sent the Federal army to enforce the end of segregation and protect the black students in school
