Little+Rock+Nine

A film clip of the movie "The Color of Justice."
 In the clip real pictures are mixed with acting to depict events connected with the integration of public school.  The video acts out historical events leading up to School Integration and displays the equality rights for African American citizens at and before that time.  Be careful not to get to off topic when watching this movie. It is a great timeline, however, if you are trying to stay on the Little Rock Nine topic you need to sift through a lot of information.(TC)

Timeline of Events of The Little Rock Nine

The National Public Radio gives a [|website] with a timeline of events three years after the Brown vs. Board of Education case had declared Separate is not equal. This site can show you the significant date, after the major case was decided in the Supreme Court. The purpose of this site is to inform and educate the people researching the topic at hand. This site is also trying to promote their own website so they will have customers who keep coming back to this site for the information they are looking for. Although this site does not contain bias, because they are not trying to persuade their readers in any direction they are simply giving facts. The National Public Radio or NPR is a very credible source because this site is maintained in a professional manor. Also this site has many people whom you are free to contact to confirm the credibility of the site. (Michelle Blackaby)

PBS Kids made a great web page on the [|Little Rock Nine]. The Little Rock Nine were part of one of the most significant civil right movements, that involved the integration of Little Rock Central High School. Nine African American students saw local resistance for trying to go a all white Central High School. The site is directed towards young students. It provides a interactive learning experience with games and quizzes. The quizzes and games are educational and fun. The site is very easy to navigate, which allows kids to get to the material they need without being distracted. PBS is a very reliable, non-bias resource. It is a non profit organization which purpose is providing educational information to the public.(RP)

This PBS [|website] is a great source because it has very many different features and information. This website has information about southern school desegregation during the time period of 1957-1962. Most of the information again, highlights the two main events of school desegregation including the Little Rock Nine and Brown v. Board of Education. This is a very educational website because it has background information on these events, as well as video clips and music snippets. This website also has images highlighting the events that took place over these times. I think this is a very useful educational site because it is from PBS and has a lot of good visuals for students to learn from. This site is unique to others because it offers a wide range of educational resources. It allows students to learn visually as well as through listening to songs and sound clips. (Scott Marinier)

The Little Rock Nine Foundation
 Another [|website] I found is dedicated to the nine brave young students who changed the public school system. This website is used to honor those brave students who have taken the risk to change history. The purpose of this site is to promote justice for all students. Although this site does contain a little bit of bias because they are asking for donations towards this foundation. They are trying to persuade their readers to help out the foundation. I do believe that the Little Rock Nine Foundation is a very credible source because the information they are giving is true and anyone can contact them to talk about the credibility of their site.

This video discusses what the President at the time, Eisenhower, was doing at the time of the historic moment of The Little Rock Nine. Also some of his actions after the event. In this video they also show some coverage of the soldiers and the students on that day. (Michelle Blackaby)
