The struggle for civil rights is a pivotal point in the history of the United States. This podcast reflects the struggle Melba Patillo Beals went through in Little Rock, Arkansas, on 1954. Melba and eight others, under the protection of the 101st Airborne, walked though the doors of Central High School. The bravery of these nine students changed a country's views of education.
