At the very end of chapter nine, Melba observes that "after three full days inside Central, I know that integration is a much bigger word than I thought" (Beals 113). What events from chapter nine lead her to this conclusion? Why?
The events that led Melba to this conclusion is when they 9. Were to ride in a jeep with soldiers, guns, and with a lot of security. Also, when the white people beat Melba on the ground. While Danny could just be there to keep Melba alive. Not to protect her or fight with the white students. In addition, on a friday that was the prep rally in Central High. Where Melba stood still and at guard at all times. This is because she was very scared and nervous that the white students might do something to her at any moment. Now in my view point If any of for example us hispanics were being racially talked to. We would do something about it immediately! Melba is just sucking everything up. Thats why she thinks that INTEGRATION is a much bigger word than it sounds.
The events that lead Melba to the conclusion that integration is a much bigger world that she thought because she wanted things to change if she was going to be at the school, either the students would change their behavior or she would have to make a better plan to protect herself.
One of the things that happened on those days was when a group of white kids kicked her shin and stomach and no soldiers were able to help her not even Danny.Then in a pep rally a group of football players choked her telling her to leave with her friends and soldiers.
One of the things that happened to her was a group of white kids in the auditorium pinned Melba in a dark corner underneath the balcony then the group of white kids were choking her.She went to a pep rally and someone in the crowd threw a stick of dynamite at her but danny got it and put out the wick on it so it didn't blow up.some hit melba in the shin and in the stomach.
Melba concluded, "After three full days inside Central, I know that integration is a much bigger word than I thought." I think she said this because in chapter nine, on that Friday, fewer soldiers showed up to guard/protect the Little Rock 9. And on that same day the Little Rock Nine had to go to the Pep Rally. That’s were Melba was left alone while Danny stood outside. And that’s were she got chocked by one of the white students at Central High. She had also previously been thrown a firecracker and had not watched were she was going and been spit at and shoved to the ground. Finding out that Danny was only there to protect her life, not to stop all the white kids from doing things to her. All leading her to believe the integration wasn’t just going to be racist remarks and hatred, but now she truly believed it was going to take a bigger part of her, maybe even risking her life to go on with the integration in Central High throughout the whole year.
The events that led to her conclusion was because in chapter nine she was being tortured. For example in the pep rally she had to go to she was shoved against a wall in the corner of the room. There someone put his arm against her throat and she couldn't breathe. The soldiers couldn't do anything about it because they weren't allowed to. The reason why the students at Central High probably did that to her was because of their hate and discrimination against her. She has done nothing wrong but still they treat her like nothing. I think this is the reason why she thinks that integration is a bigger word than what she thought because now she sees and is experiencing the struggle to integrate.
I think that she thinks that it will be a new start to a new beginning in her life. But like she said in the book “after three full days inside central, I know that integration is a much bigger world than I thought.” Right there I think that she open her eyes and said is now I can every thing was in front of my face the hold time.
the reason melba came to this conclusion that integreation is a bigger word than she thought is because of the things she has been through.she has been beaten up in the hallway and going to a prep rally by herself without danny.melba has come to the conclusion that she thought integraetiong was a word that meant thatr they would attend central high and have some equal rights to atending central high.one thing i know is that she feels safer when ever she is with dny but in all the events that have happend danny cant really help her out.
Melba said that "after three full days inside Central, I know that integration is a much bigger word than I thought" (Beals 113).In chapter 9, she got spit at by a white girl, she almost got burned by a burning stick, she got dropped & kicked by a group of boys, & she got choked & threatened by three or four football players. That led her to that conclusion because integration was more dangerous and challenging than she thought it would be.
What lead Melba to the conclusion that integration is a much bigger word is that she knew that the whites didn’t like the blacks but she didn’t know it was to the point that they will kill blacks, one guy tried to choke Melba and someone said “where going to make your life hell nigger”(Beals 112).
The events that led for her to think this were when someone threw a stick of dynamite. Some white kids also kicked her in the stomach and in the shins. Some more white kids under the balcony in the auditorium also choked her during the school peep rally.
Some events could be when melba got spit on her face by a girl.A group of boys bumped straight into melba and one of them kicked her in the shins.Another kick was given to melba in her stomach. Melba asked Danny how come he didn't do anything and Danny said he's suppose to keep her alive and not get involve in her fights.Also when someone tried to throw a flaming stick of dynamite at melba.Lastly melba was to attend her first pep rally. When she was moving out,she was being shoved to the corner by football players, and one's forearm pressed hard against her throat and knocked her books down(Beals 107,108,110,112).
The events that led to Melba believe that the word integration is much bigger than she thought is because in chapter 9 she gets bet up by the white students and there was a big rally to see how long they last. Also the soldiers are all around
Events from chapter nine that lead her to this conclusion is when a group of boys bump into her and one of them kicks her in her leg and stomach and the teacher doesn't do anything about it, when someone throws a flaming stick of dynamite at her, and when some guys push her in a corner after the pep rally, choke her, and tell her that they're gonna make her life hell.

Some events from chapter 9 that lead her to this conclusion is that this boy kicks her on her leg and she falls then the boy kicks her in her stomach. And the teacher doesnt do anything about it. Another thing is that in the pep rally this guy chokes her and told her "We're gonna make your life hell, nigger". And this person throws her a a flaming stick of dynamite.
It makes her think that central is way different than what she thought it would be because of how the white students treat her. After her 3 day experience at central high she realized it was going to be much more difficult than just coming to school, do work, and integrating with white people. She found out that integrating was much worse. In her three days of integrating she had to go through beatings. Some group of boys bumped into her and beat her, later they called her names that made her feel bad, and a group of football players surrounded her and chocked her. She realizes that only soldiers can protect her and that soldiers have to come because of so much violence that the white people wanted to kill them. White people don't want them there.
What lead her to this conclusion was because she found out that there is more comming to her way then just going to school and learn. She has to deal with them white people cursing at her yelling and doing bad things to her. Those 3 day in that high school she found out what she is heading to that their is more then integrating whit the white people she also knows that the only people the can help her are the soldiers she get threaten alot of times and
The events from chapter 9 that lead her to the conclusion of " after three full days inside Central, i know that integration is a much bigger word than i thought" is by the way the white kids treat her. As in they make fun of her, beat her up,and when this group of big football players where trying to chocke her. She's begining to think is a much bigger word because the white kids are trying to kill her, they don't want her there the only way to survive there is by the help of the soldiers so that means that it's really serious word. As in the kids her age are all ready thinking of a way of getting her out the school or even kiling her. I don't know how she does it to concentrate in Central high knowing that they want to kill her.
The events that lead to this thought is that Melba gets spat on,a boy tries to choke her in the gym,and three guys knock her down and kick her.They do this because they don't want black people in there school.
The event that led Melba into thinking that would be,when the football players pinned her to the wall ,and were choking her to death.She was also led to that idea because Danny told her that she needed to defend herself if she wanted to live.Danny told her "It's never to late.It takes a warrior to fight a battle and survive.This here is a battle if I've ever seen one"{Beals 113}He's trying to tell her that she needs to win this battle.
Events from chapter nine lead Melba to this conclution because she realizes that white people don't want her at Central High and that they might not stop bothering her with their threats.She knows that integration is a much bigger word than what she thought because she mentions that "Either the students would have to change the way they behaved, or i would have to devise a better plan to protect myself"(Beals 113).BY Melba saying this she knows that she is going to work hard in order to survive Central High.
The events that led her to think that integration was a much bigger word when she was beat up because she is hated then she tells the office but it only counts if a white teacher sees them. Lastly she has to be transported by the 101st air born to school and back!
Integration is more than a word to her because all that she has been through in the short time she has been there. She learned to be brave in front of everyone that is mean to her. This is the begining of the year. All of this is happening just because she wants to go to a white school.
Based on what I read in chapter 9 melba observes that "after three full days in Central,i know that integration is a much bigger word than i tought " is cuz her, days in central was really tough because the whites were just bothering her .Also because they wanted to kill her,they spit at her,and were just messing around with her thats y she said that integration is a much bigger than she tought because her pass days were bad.=]
Based on what I have read In chapter 9 the shool days were hard beacause they wanted to kill her. In "Warriors Dont cry" she got spatt at,they knocked down her books,hit her. they threaten her too. She was being called names. "After 3 full days inside Central High, integration is amuch bigger than I thought"(113)
The events that happened in the chapter, is when she was in school walking through the halls and the students in that school were throwing things at her, screaming at her, laughing at her, and they even spit at her. The soldiers couldn't do anything to help her. Melba even went to go talk to a teacher and the teacher didn't want to help her. A white even told her that they were going to make her live in school hell. Melba felt sad deep inside but she kept strong cus she told herself that soldiers don't cry, that even if they're hurt, they don't show it because they're strong.
The event that lead Melba to her conclusion was when she went to her pep rally. In her opinon, the pep rally "was rather like being thrown in with the lions to see how long we cpuld survive"(Beals 111). She was being attacked and choked by a white kid. Also, Danny wasent with her when this happen and even if he was, he coulnt interfer or fight of the kids. She also said that "my body was wearing out real fast"(Beals 113). It was her against the white kids at Central High.
what happens to Melba at very end of the chapter when Melba observes that integartion is getting much bigger is that white people were throwing her stuff and telling her stuff. They were telling her that they were going to make her life like hell and the others two and that and they were telling more stuff like verbal bulling. That is how melba observes that integaration is getting bigger.
In this chapter Melba experienced some bad things. While walking in the hallway a girl spit in her face and kids were yelling names at her the whole time. Then, a group of boys bumped into her and kicked her in the shins and then the stomach. Later on in the day she had a dynamite stick thrown at her when no one else was around. Then she found out that she had to go to a pep rally and she was really scared. She thought she was safe and then while leaving a boy grabbed her and started choking her. He told her angrily "We're gonna make your life hell, niger. You'all are gonna go screaming out of here, taking those nigger-loving soldiers with you"(Beals 112). This showed her that integration was going to be a lot harder than she had thought.
The events that let her to her conclusions is when the girl was behind her and when Melba turned around she got spit in the face.Another is when she was with danny and they threw a dynamite flaming stick and danny pushed her because it was going to hit her.the last is that in the pep rally was going on and somebody grabbed her and started to choke her againist the wall
In chapter nine Melba goes through many things that led her to think that integration is a much bigger word than she thought. She constantly harrassed by the students. She gets spit on by a girl who is fallowing her, someone throws a flaming stick of dymamite, and after her first pep rally she pinned against a wall a chocked by 3 or 4 very strong guys. Also, when Danny tells her that that he can not pysically or verbal protect her against her attackers. These are the events that lead her to this conclusion.
In chapter Nine Melba thought that intergration was such a bigger word because she got spit on the face by a white girl following her.and also she tought that "Ater three full days in Ceral High i know that integation is such a bigger word than i tought"(Beals 113).Also it made melba think that because she got chocked "Suddenly Iwas being shoved backward toward the corner very hard one of them said we are going to make your life hell nigger youll all are gonna go sceaming out of here taking those nigger loving soldiers with you"(Beals 112)
Well the events that led Melba to believe, "That integration is a much bigger word than she thought" were when ever they hit her or call her names. Also when she was being choked. She realizes that she has to stand up for herself. She knows that those people will never stop until they get what they want.
because the whites think they are doing a good job by kicking out the blacks and being racist. They think they would be a bad idea to let the blacks have rights and freedom
After Melba is almost choked by a white guy, she believes, "after thre full days inside Cental...integration is a much bigger word than I thought" (Beals 113). She thinks that going through all that she has gone through was more than she expected. Melba is verbally and physically bullied, but she is also treated nicely by some white people. I think she kind of expected the mistreat, but not the kindness from the people she is afraid of. She gets spit on, kicked, thrown on the floor, almost choked, and made fun of. These events lead her to the conclusion that integration is a much bigger word than she thought because all the mistreat she had went through was way beyond her expectations.
In chapter 9 Melba realizes that integration is a much bigger word than she tought because she is expirementing it really hard the way they treat her and her friends she expiriences how they step on her and kick her. The way the white girl stepped on her heals and when she turned back she spitt on her face. Also when one of the white boys choked her." Suddenly i was being shoved backward toward the corner very hard . A strong hand knocked my books and papers to the floor as the three or four football player types squeezed me into a dark corner beneath the overhead balcony. One of them pinned me against the wall, someone's forearm pressed hard against my throat, chocking me. I couldnt speak. I could hardly breath"(Beals 112).
Melba experienced a lot of mean verbal and physical assults. She was was called a "Negro" during clases, passed her notes with mean insults, spitballs were thrown at her, they spit on her face, she was pushed to the floor and kicked in the stomach. Melba knew that integretion was a big deal to white people but never thought it bothered them that much that they had to treat her that way. She realized integertion ment a lot to the white people and they werent going to stop till they stopped it.
Before the end of the chapter she feels someone is folowing her.She turns around and a girl spits at her but she ducks it and misses.Another one, she I think she falls and and some jokeys kick her in the stomach.
She came to this conclusion because she was almost choked to death by 3-4 football playing guys. They warned or stated " we're gonna make your life hell nigger"(Beals 112). This could have lead her to the conclusion because they Whites take their schools with pride. They think having blacks in their school is not right. They wont stop until they get them out of the school. I mean the Little Rock Nine are just there to learn not to torture the whites. For whites the intergration is like torture for them. They have to go use extreme measures just to get them out of there.
I think what let her to think was the day she had in Central.when some students started treating her almost equal she knows that integration is difficult because of the resistance of other poeple. But even if integration means being mistreated, spit on, kicked, and throw in insults so be it but she knows it is going to be alot of work. But integration in Central will happen even if white people disagree completely. Some of the events are what i just listed and a horrid one is when she had been throw dynamite.
Based on what I read Melba suggest this because of all of the discrimination and all the bad people that say bad things about them. She also believes this because of that angry mob that criticizes them day in and day out. She also believes that integration is a much bigger word than she thought because she might have believe that it would have been easy to integrate Central High.
At the end of chapter nine Melba observes that "After three full days inside central ,i know that integrtion is a bigger word than i thought"(beals113) she said this because some guy tried to choke her.This is why she lead to this conclusion.
She think that integration is bigger word than she picture it because what has happen to her in Central High how they treat her and what they say in her presence.She thinks that is more stronger word from her life style that she is goin through.
The events that let her to think that were that she never thought white people would act so horrible to her. This is what let her to think that it was more than just a word. This meant to her people hitting. punching, spiting, insulting, and many other horrible thing this what let her to think that.
"after three full days inside Central, I know that integration is a much bigger word than I thought" She comes to this conclusion because during chapter nine they are very cruel to her. One of the examples of being cruel to her was when a group of people came up to her and began beating her in front of a teacher and the teacher didnt say anything the teacher acted as if it was normal. Another example wouldve been when they threw a stick of dynamite at her and that just really shows how willing they are to take it to the next level. those examples really show how they really wanted all of the african american students out of there it shows that they will go to great heights to get rid of them and these horrible atrocities that they did were merely something that the Caucasian people thought as normal.
Chapter-9 Federal court hearing would be significant: whether federal gov has constitutional authority to check state governor when he defies federal court. Judge Ronald Davies presided, denied all motions of governor’s lawyers. Lawyers walked out, saying the US court can’t question authority of governor. Thurgood forced to eat with others on 9th St, no decent restaurants served blacks. Court again, witnesses said violence not substantial enough to necessitate troops. Judge Davies ruled that integration should continue.
Faubus removed Nat’l Guard. Black community fearful, authorities posed more harm than help. Vince drove Melba home from church, talked only about integration.
_____________________________________________ Chapter-10 Melba arrived at school, police holding back mob. Met Mrs. Huckaby, vice principal for girls. Each student assigned different homeroom. Teachers indifferent. During gym, on playing field, 3 mothers jumped fence to attack. Shorthand teacher, Mrs. Pickwick, was compassionate and no-nonsense. Outside window, Melba saw an ocean of people. "2, 4, 6, 8, we ain’t gonna integrate," they shouted. She was taken to office, overheard that mob was out of control.
the things that happened on those days was when a group of white kids kicked her shin and stomach and no soldiers were able to help her not even Danny.Then in a pep rally a group of football players choked her telling her to leave with her friends and soldiers.
In order to ensure that you know what grade you are earning on your blog entries, I am going to make my criteria as clear as I possibly can. Here is what I expect from a good blog entry: -You restate the question again so that the answer can stand on its own. If your response needs the question in order to be understood, you will not receive full credit. Ex. Was Mose Wright a bystander, upstander, victim, or perpetrator? Start of answer: Mose Wright was a couple of different roles from the spectrum of human behavior. For example, he was a bystander because________________ -You have a development of ideas in your answer. Not only do you give examples, but you tell me what the examples show. You also share with everyone your thoughts and judgments about the topic you are asked to write about. Keep this in the back of your mind in terms of grading: -3 sentences or less = 50 percent -4-6 sentences=75 percent -7-9 sentences=85 percent -10 sentences + deep insight and thought= 95 percent Finally, at the end of the paragraph you should have a concluding sentence. Ex. Because of his actions, I believe that Mose Wright was all of those roles from the spectrum of human behavior. BLOG ENTRIES SHOULD TAKE YOU ABOUT TWENTY MINUTES. JUST BECAUSE IT GETS DONE DOES NOT MEAN THAT YOU GET FULL CREDIT. DO YOUR BEST!
The events that led Melba to this conclusion is when they 9. Were to ride in a jeep with soldiers, guns, and with a lot of security. Also, when the white people beat Melba on the ground.

ReplyDeleteBased on what I have read In chapter 9 the shool days were hard beacause they wanted to kill her. In "Warriors Dont cry" she got spatt at,they knocked down her books,hit her. they threaten her too. She was being called names. "After 3 full days inside Central High, integration is amuch bigger than I thought"(113)
ReplyDeleteThe events that happened in the chapter, is when she was in school walking through the halls and the students in that school were throwing things at her, screaming at her, laughing at her, and they even spit at her. The soldiers couldn't do anything to help her. Melba even went to go talk to a teacher and the teacher didn't want to help her. A white even told her that they were going to make her live in school hell. Melba felt sad deep inside but she kept strong cus she told herself that soldiers don't cry, that even if they're hurt, they don't show it because they're strong.
ReplyDeleteThe event that lead Melba to her conclusion was when she went to her pep rally. In her opinon, the pep rally "was rather like being thrown in with the lions to see how long we cpuld survive"(Beals 111). She was being attacked and choked by a white kid. Also, Danny wasent with her when this happen and even if he was, he coulnt interfer or fight of the kids. She also said that "my body was wearing out real fast"(Beals 113). It was her against the white kids at Central High.
ReplyDeletewhat happens to Melba at very end of the chapter when Melba observes that integartion is getting much bigger is that white people were throwing her stuff and telling her stuff.
ReplyDeleteThey were telling her that they were going to
make her life like hell and the others two and that and they were telling more stuff like verbal bulling. That is how melba observes that integaration is getting bigger.
In this chapter Melba experienced some bad things. While walking in the hallway a girl spit in her face and kids were yelling names at her the whole time. Then, a group of boys bumped into her and kicked her in the shins and then the stomach. Later on in the day she had a dynamite stick thrown at her when no one else was around. Then she found out that she had to go to a pep rally and she was really scared. She thought she was safe and then while leaving a boy grabbed her and started choking her. He told her angrily "We're gonna make your life hell, niger. You'all are gonna go screaming out of here, taking those nigger-loving soldiers with you"(Beals 112). This showed her that integration was going to be a lot harder than she had thought.
ReplyDeleteThe events that let her to her conclusions is when the girl was behind her and when Melba turned around she got spit in the face.Another is when she was with danny and they threw a dynamite flaming stick and danny pushed her because it was going to hit her.the last is that in the pep rally was going on and somebody grabbed her and started to choke her againist the wall
ReplyDeleteIn chapter nine Melba goes through many things that led her to think that integration is a much bigger word than she thought. She constantly harrassed by the students. She gets spit on by a girl who is fallowing her, someone throws a flaming stick of dymamite, and after her first pep rally she pinned against a wall a chocked by 3 or 4 very strong guys. Also, when Danny tells her that that he can not pysically or verbal protect her against her attackers. These are the events that lead her to this conclusion.
ReplyDeleteIn chapter Nine Melba thought that intergration was such a bigger word because she got spit on the face by a white girl following her.and also she tought that "Ater three full days in Ceral High i know that integation is such a bigger word than i tought"(Beals 113).Also it made melba think that because she got chocked "Suddenly Iwas being shoved backward toward the corner very hard one of them said we are going to make your life hell nigger youll all are gonna go sceaming out of here taking those nigger loving soldiers with you"(Beals 112)
ReplyDeleteWell the events that led Melba to believe, "That integration is a much bigger word than she thought" were when ever they hit her or call her names. Also when she was being choked. She realizes that she has to stand up for herself. She knows that those people will never stop until they get what they want.
ReplyDeletebecause the whites think they are doing a good job by kicking out the blacks and being racist. They think they would be a bad idea to let the blacks have rights and freedom
ReplyDeleteAfter Melba is almost choked by a white guy, she believes, "after thre full days inside Cental...integration is a much bigger word than I thought" (Beals 113). She thinks that going through all that she has gone through was more than she expected. Melba is verbally and physically bullied, but she is also treated nicely by some white people. I think she kind of expected the mistreat, but not the kindness from the people she is afraid of. She gets spit on, kicked, thrown on the floor, almost choked, and made fun of. These events lead her to the conclusion that integration is a much bigger word than she thought because all the mistreat she had went through was way beyond her expectations.
ReplyDeleteIn chapter 9 Melba realizes that integration is a much bigger word than she tought because she is expirementing it really hard the way they treat her and her friends she expiriences how they step on her and kick her. The way the white girl stepped on her heals and when she turned back she spitt on her face. Also when one of the white boys choked her." Suddenly i was being shoved backward toward the corner very hard . A strong hand knocked my books and papers to the floor as the three or four football player types squeezed me into a dark corner beneath the overhead balcony. One of them pinned me against the wall, someone's forearm pressed hard against my throat, chocking me. I couldnt speak. I could hardly breath"(Beals 112).
ReplyDeleteMelba experienced a lot of mean verbal and physical assults. She was was called a "Negro" during clases, passed her notes with mean insults, spitballs were thrown at her, they spit on her face, she was pushed to the floor and kicked in the stomach. Melba knew that integretion was a big deal to white people but never thought it bothered them that much that they had to treat her that way. She realized integertion ment a lot to the white people and they werent going to stop till they stopped it.
ReplyDeleteBefore the end of the chapter she feels someone is folowing her.She turns around and a girl spits at her but she ducks it and misses.Another one, she I think she falls and and some jokeys kick her in the stomach.
ReplyDeleteShe came to this conclusion because she was almost choked to death by 3-4 football playing guys. They warned or stated " we're gonna make your life hell nigger"(Beals 112). This could have lead her to the conclusion because they Whites take their schools with pride. They think having blacks in their school is not right. They wont stop until they get them out of the school. I mean the Little Rock Nine are just there to learn not to torture the whites. For whites the intergration is like torture for them. They have to go use extreme measures just to get them out of there.
ReplyDeleteI think what let her to think was the day she had in Central.when some students started treating her almost equal she knows that integration is difficult because of the resistance of other poeple. But even if integration means being mistreated, spit on, kicked, and throw in insults so be it but she knows it is going to be alot of work. But integration in Central will happen even if white people disagree completely. Some of the events are what i just listed and a horrid one is when she had been throw dynamite.
ReplyDeleteBased on what I read Melba suggest this because of all of the discrimination and all the bad people that say bad things about them. She also believes this because of that angry mob that criticizes them day in and day out. She also believes that integration is a much bigger word than she thought because she might have believe that it would have been easy to integrate Central High.
ReplyDeleteAt the end of chapter nine Melba observes that "After three full days inside central ,i know that integrtion is a bigger word than i thought"(beals113) she said this because some guy tried to choke her.This is why she lead to this conclusion.
ReplyDeleteBianca and Tania will not get credit as they copied their responses from one another. I do read each and every post!
ReplyDeleteShe think that integration is bigger word than she picture it because what has happen to her in Central High how they treat her and what they say in her presence.She thinks that is more stronger word from her life style that she is goin through.
ReplyDeleteThe events that let her to think that were that she never thought white people would act so horrible to her. This is what let her to think that it was more than just a word. This meant to her people hitting. punching, spiting, insulting, and many other horrible thing this what let her to think that.
ReplyDelete"after three full days inside Central, I know that integration is a much bigger word than I thought" She comes to this conclusion because during chapter nine they are very cruel to her. One of the examples of being cruel to her was when a group of people came up to her and began beating her in front of a teacher and the teacher didnt say anything the teacher acted as if it was normal. Another example wouldve been when they threw a stick of dynamite at her and that just really shows how willing they are to take it to the next level. those examples really show how they really wanted all of the african american students out of there it shows that they will go to great heights to get rid of them and these horrible atrocities that they did were merely something that the Caucasian people thought as normal.
ReplyDeleteChapter-9 Federal court hearing would be significant: whether federal gov has constitutional authority to check state governor when he defies federal court. Judge Ronald Davies presided, denied all motions of governor’s lawyers. Lawyers walked out, saying the US court can’t question authority of governor. Thurgood forced to eat with others on 9th St, no decent restaurants served blacks. Court again, witnesses said violence not substantial enough to necessitate troops. Judge Davies ruled that integration should continue.
ReplyDeleteFaubus removed Nat’l Guard. Black community fearful, authorities posed more harm than help. Vince drove Melba home from church, talked only about integration.
_____________________________________________
Chapter-10 Melba arrived at school, police holding back mob. Met Mrs. Huckaby, vice principal for girls. Each student assigned different homeroom. Teachers indifferent. During gym, on playing field, 3 mothers jumped fence to attack. Shorthand teacher, Mrs. Pickwick, was compassionate and no-nonsense. Outside window, Melba saw an ocean of people. "2, 4, 6, 8, we ain’t gonna integrate," they shouted. She was taken to office, overheard that mob was out of control.
the things that happened on those days was when a group of white kids kicked her shin and stomach and no soldiers were able to help her not even Danny.Then in a pep rally a group of football players choked her telling her to leave with her friends and soldiers.
