    Elizabeth Eckford is still alive. She is 78 years old and forever traumatized by this experience. Do not let them make you believe this was that long ago. Elizabeth Eckford, and so many other older black Americans, are still alive and have to continue to be traumatized by the continued racism in the U.S..

      If anyone is ever to blame for childrens racist behaviors....the blame is to the parents.
      Racists aren't born they are taught. Not all children were taught by their parents that it is okay to treat others bad because of their differences, because their parents parents didn't teach them that....so on and so forth. The best way to stop racisim....is to quit teaching it.

      @@ancienthumortracer4000 I remember being in the 4th grade, and our teacher had given us an assignment to write regarding *Racism* ; My immediate " go to " was a song that had impacted me from this old movie my mom and I had watched one night. It was an old musical film classic called " *South Pacific* " ( _and I recommend everyone watch it_ ) ; although the film attempts to come off as a _lighthearted musical_ , the underlying connotations heavily relied on *racism* . Here are the lyrics to the song which really sealed the overall theme of the film :
      You've got to be taught
      To hate and fear,
      You've got to be taught
      From year to year,
      It's got to be drummed
      In your dear little ear
      You've got to be carefully taught.
      You've got to be taught to be afraid
      Of people whose _eyes are oddly made,_
      And people whose _skin is a diff'rent shade,_
      You've got to be carefully taught.
      You've got to be taught before it's too late,
      _Before you are six or seven or eight,_
      _To hate all the people your relatives hate,_
      You've got to be carefully taught!

    Mad respect to all my black sisters and brothers who came before me and stood up to racism in ways that I cannot fathom facing today. The insults, offenses and injuries to your bodies, minds, lives, and humanity is something I'll never know and it's all thanks to you. Thank you for exhibiting strength and resilience. Thank you for doing the work and allowing me to live in a better society...albeit, one that is still filled with racism, but far easier to navigate and experience within a black body. You are heroes. You saved future generations from indignity and brutality (things still experienced today, but in a far less pervasive manner). The country is still filled with racism, but I got to grow up never having to cross to the other side of the street for a white person, never having to bow my head at a white person, never having to use a separate entrance to a building, and never having to sit at the back of a bus, movie theatre or courthouse.

    This wasn’t that long ago. Remember that all of these people are someone’s grandparents and great grandparents. The students, the cops, the protestors, the politicians. So the next time someone says racism is over or that we all need to love on, point them to someone in your family or their family. They likely have someone who participated in this, and refused to face their crimes.

      There are still people alive today walking free today that participated in lynchings. If my parents had been of African heritage in America they would have been subject to segregation laws while they were growing up. A lot of people seem to think that the Civil Rights movement happened 100 years ago, kind of like how people assume Vietnam veterans are 90+ years old ( they are not). The truth is, its so recent that in some families its not even separated by a full generation yet people are surprised when something like Charlottesville happens.

    I love this but they left out Daisy Bates! If you see this comment, please google her. She WAS the reason those nine students ever got the chance to attend LR Central High. She was a civil rights activist in the 50s, the president of the Little Rock NAACP, and even ran a newspaper that exclusively covered the nationwide civil rights movement and highlighted the achievements of black Arkansans. When the desegregation of schools was stalled by bureaucratic racism, she led the fight against the system. And it took years. She planned it all, debating the school board, advising the students, and organizing the safest route to school and volunteers to accompany them. Ernest Green, Elizabeth Eckford, Jefferson Thomas, Terrence Roberts, Carlotta Walls LaNier, Minnijean Brown, Gloria Ray Karlmark, Thelma Mothershed, and Melba Pattillo Beals are all icons, and rightfully so, but please don’t let history forget about Daisy Bates. I know they didn’t mean to do her any injustice, but they missed an opportunity. We hear so few stories of black women fighting and changing the system that sometimes ignorant people get the impression that there are none, but in actuality, WOC leaders have existed, they do exist, and they will continue to even without getting the recognition they deserve.
    Please google her.
    PS I love Amber!

The fight against racism is lifelong (and will continue for generations).

    True story. My mom told me while she lived in Virginia during the civil rights movement the school bus she was on had to be escorted by the National guard especially in a particular white neighborhood and grown ppl would called them names and throw rocks at the school boy.

      I think she's great where she is right now, that being on Seth Meyer's show. They already showcase her a lot, but maybe they can give her even more time and segments, that'd be cool :) the other people like the leave them alone guy or that other weird little writer whose name I forgot aren't nearly as funny as her.

      When I saw the Little Rock Nine step on the school grounds, a chill went through me. I faced that same reception when I was bussed to an all white school in Louisville KY in the late 70's. On our first day of school, we were confronted by mob of white adults bearing signs that essentially said we don't want you here, go back to your neighborhood. I can still hear the sound of glass bottles shattering against the sides of the bus. Racial slurs. The other kids with me were crouched on their seats or on the floor of the bus, screaming. I only had two years to attend until I graduated, Thank God. I had some positive experiences over time. Life went on. I forgive those racist pigs but I will never forget. I don't know how old you are but you're lucky never to have experienced it. Google the period of time when we were court ordered to go to all white schools and whites were forced to do the same. Busing was done in Boston, Ma, and cities in Maryland just to name a few. I admire the strength and courage of the Little Rock Nine. And I'm glad that things have and are changing. I stand for non-hate, peaceful non-violent protest, inclusion, diversity and justice. Let's keep talking and understanding one other.

    My mom went to Central High, she was born and raised in Arkansas and I lived there for only a few years but luckily we went back every year to see our family and I remember the day she took me to see where she went to High School and I saw how beautiful and giant it was but was more intrigued by the memorial benches, garden, and statues put up of the Little Rock Nine (something I knew nothing about because my school in Texas only taught Texas History) so we sat there and she told me all about it and I was blown away and I think if by any chance you end up in Little Rock/ Arkansas in general take a stop by Central High. It’s huge and has so much life. I haven’t seen it in about 5 years but I do cherish that moment I had with my mom and everything that I learned while sitting where it all happened. Their bravery will never go unnoticed. Crazy that in 2021 it still feels like nothings changed... Sad we have to even ask ourselves “when will the hate end..?” and by “ourselves” I mean us white people.
