In Little Rock there was a major historical event, because it stopped segregation. The supreme court ruled that 9 students would be able to start school with white students at a Little Rock High School. martin Luther King was a big part of this change because he influenced African Americans to stand up for what was right. Not only ASfrican Americans but Asian Americans and Spanish Americans. Another leader who helped pathe the way for Latin Americans.
