RESEARCH QUESTION:

“ How has Central high in Little Rock changed from the time of segregation to today?”

From my research on Central High I learned that the segregation has changed throughout the years. The push by African-Americans to open the doors to more black students at Central High School is forcing the entire community to re-examine what is working and what is not under the current desegregation plan.
