Description
One gelatin silver print or original vintage press photographic reproduction from the archives of the Star Tribune depicting Jefferson Thomas exiting a car as he arrives for his first day at Little Rock’s Central High School, being met with a crowd of snarky white students. Jefferson Thomas was one of the Little Rock Nine, a group of nine African-American students who were the first black students ever to attend classes and desegregate the High School. The world watched as they braved constant intimidation and threats from those who opposed desegregation of the formerly all-white high school.
