I’m listening to the #ChrisHayes podcast- he’s interviewing Minnijean Brown-Trickery, one of #LittleRockNine He asks her if there were any nice white kids. She responds that there were about 20 nice kids, 200 mean kids, and 1800 who said and did nothing but watched. And that there is the societal breakdown of good and evil…then and now. #blackhistorymonth #BlackHistoryMatters #blacklivesmatter #blm

#Huckabee’s response to #Sotu was strange on many levels, but here’s what stuns this #lawprof— citing the #LittleRockNine to support a call for sm govt and local ctrl. People, those brave children were escorted by FEDERAL troops authorized by #potus and #scotus. #HistoryMatters
