Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Little Rock Nine were the nine African American students who attempted to integrate Central High School in Little Rock, Alabama in 1957. The students faced open hostility and resistance requiring federal protection. This book examines the events leading up to and the people involved in the desegregation of Central High. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
