Elizabeth Eckford on her way to Little Rock Central High School, AR (her new "integrated" school).
She was walking to school alone when white people started to yell at her, to call her names or to spit on her. These white people were protesting against the fact that black students could now attend school with the whites. The white protesters were over excited, they were shouting, threatening Elizabeth and spitting on her. Elizabeth was terrified but she kept walking courageously.
