Roaming History | Little Rock Nine documentary: Black students challenged segregation (civil rights)

[@Rathclav]

I'm a Canadian, but this story is still absolutely monumental and powerful. Thank you for continuing to tell these stories.

[@RoamingHistory]

We agree - these are powerful stories that need to be told. Thank you so very kindly for watching!

[@MikeIzzo-lp7kn]

Don't believe it the truth was quite the opposite

Keep telling the important stories others won’t! Thank you for your wonderful series. These stories need to be told and heard.

[@RoamingHistory]

Absolutely we will! Thank you so kindly for your support! It means a lot!

[@historytheorist]

This is a really good-quality documentary and highly informative! It has a good mix of VoiceOver, on-site footage, and interview footage. Thank you for sharing!

[@RoamingHistory]

Thank you very kindly! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@AlexKawa20]

Damn, you can hear the pain in the narrator's voice as he details the abuse these students received. Fantastic work as always, and I'm excited for more!

[@RoamingHistory]

Thank you for the kind words! Can’t tell you how much we appreciate your support!

That’s his job. He’s paid to sell emotional and make you the same way.

Excellent documentary. I knew a little bit about the Little Rock Nine before, but also learned so much through this documentary. It is powerful and hit my heart. Keep up the good work.

@@RoamingHistory Anytime! I really like your videos. They're all great and informative.

[@Andrew.Schlei]

Nice work, this was very interesting and informative. I learned a lot.

[@RoamingHistory]

Thanks so much, Andrew!

[@vineyarddawg]

What a great-quality documentary video! We must never forget the courage and determination shown by those brave 9 teenagers in the face of such hatred and evil, and your channel is helping to keep the story alive. I hope y'all can get more exposure on KZbin, you're doing great work!

[@RoamingHistory]

You’re very kind! Thank you so much! Absolutely, we will continue to upload more videos on important topics.

At this point, there are very few stories that can move me. This one moved me very deeply.

[@RoamingHistory]

We were moved, too, especially when we interviewed Dr. Roberts and heard his incredible story. Thank you for watching!

[@timmartin7664]

It's interesting watch this video, because I compare it with my high school which was intergrated in 1919 in Junction City Kansas.

[@marshaverduzco2859]

There was one more but she was ill from dread so unable to attend. The last year I attended Southeast High School the following year they were going to Desegregate but that year they were going to send kids to different schools in accordance to where their education were to be focused. SE was strong on science . I was walking down the hallway and a small group of black students stepped in suddenly a deep silence fell. I approached them asked if they knew where to go, they said no. I was very shy but I couldn't just leave them stranded so I led them to the principal office and went to my first class. The following year I was at Bowlegs and there was a Race riot at southeast high school somebody was killed. Desegregation was not easily done.

[@RoamingHistory]

Small acts of kindness can go a long way. I’m sure they were grateful you were so welcoming.

[@91Tmart]

Awesome video, can't wait to see more.

[@RoamingHistory]

Thanks so much for the support!

[@spangelicious837]

Excellent documentary. They don't tell us about anything that happened after the kids were allowed in the school. Very informative.

[@RoamingHistory]

Thank you! I know, history lessons can be so oversimplified sometimes.

[@cyndiebill6631]

Your videos are so amazing! I totally enjoy watching them. I’ve learned so much and realized that these children were so strong that no one could stop them. ❤💪😊 19:09

[@RoamingHistory]

Thank you so kindly for the support! We can’t wait to share more stories in the near future!

I was Born and raised in Little Rock, Arkansas ...I wondered why the statues of the Little Rock nine weren't placed on the campus of Central ... hmmm...😮👀🤔👁️🙋🏿🙋🏿‍♂️

[@LouiseAndersen1991]

"Leave me alone, white trash" . I can never think of a time I have litteraly dropped my jaw, but I did it. What an amazing and important story you are telling.

[@RoamingHistory]

Thank you so kindly! Agreed. It’s a story everyone needs to know.

[@Califresh21]

Real 1$ never fear do or die aces anything can equal success

[@CreepingHistory]

It is unbelievable how grown adults can be so utterly horrible to children that just want to be treated equal to other children. It’s tragic that bigotry of this nature continues to exist in the US, despite all the progress that was made, and now in areas being undone.

[@RoamingHistory]

Agreed. That’s why we decided to tell these stories - to remind everyone that the progress we’ve made is fragile and must be preserved.

[@CreepingHistory]

@@RoamingHistory And I want to thank you guys very much for that. Also the writing and narration was really well done. I’m not one to easily get misty-eyed, but detailing the abuse in such vivid detail with photographs was extremely infuriating and heartbreaking. Keep up the great work! I’m very glad I found your channel through VTH!

[@RoamingHistory]

Thank you so very much!
