The Little Rock Nine incident occurred in September 1957 when nine African American students, known as the Little Rock Nine, enrolled at Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas. The event was marked by significant resistance and hostility, leading to federal intervention when President Eisenhower sent troops to ensure the students' safety and their right to attend the school. The situation unfolded primarily over the course of that school year.
