Black Students Escorted By Troops
African-American students attending Little Rock Central High School are escorted to a waiting Army station wagon for their return home after classes, 3rd October 1957. Their guard was heavier than usual because of a "walk-out" demonstration by about 50 segregationist students. One of the black students was burned in effigy on the campus in an atmosphere of general tension.
