Clinton salutes Little Rock Nine at Central High doors
President Clinton opened Central High School doors to nine Black students who faced mobs 40 years earlier, stressing progress and ongoing fights against resegregation. Gov. Huckabee and Mayor Daley joined, while Thurgood Marshall's family watched. The event recalled Eisenhower’s Army escort and Brown v. Board of Education.
