Little Rock School Board Unveils 3 Point Plan On Integration
The Little Rock school board outlined three steps to resist a resumption of integration, including asking the US Supreme Court for intervention, seeking a stay from the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, and attempting to meet with Governor Faubus to discuss his proposed methods. The plan followed a closed session after the court overturned a lower court’s 24 year delay ruling. Faubus said action depended on the board’s moves and warned lawmakers not to call a special session if actions aligned with his conditions.
