My friend Angel, a 4th grade teacher says,"The students created trees,

with the "US Constitution" as the trunk and the three branches of

government as the canopy. The background is painted with tempra

paints. The keyrings are my math flashcards, that I use to question

kids when we're transitioning between subjects. The baggy is basically

my magnetic numbers that I use on the white-board, especially when the

kids are having a difficult time dividing. As you can see..I use ALL

edges of the bulletin board!"

Probably the most knowledgable of all the people I spoke to, this guy spouted off every name and date I could imagine. He really knew his stuff and was very passionate as well. Both he and his wife were retired and had moved down from Philadelphia. He had also been a volunteer at Constitution Hall in Philadelphia and actually moved to VA to work at Jamestown so he could learn more about the journey from England and the boats themselves. At 62 (I believe that's what he said) his goal is to stay mentally active and keep learning new things. It seems to be working for him.

‪•‬

On September 9, 1957, as 19 black 6 year olds integrated all-white elementary schools in Nashville, Tennessee, white church members, including one local minister, organized a persistent and violent campaign to oppose the integration of Nashville public schools.

‪•‬

Outside Fehr Elementary School, one person held a sign that read “God is the author of segregation” and pursued two black children walking to the school. Outside 3 different elementary schools that same morning, Fred Stroud—a white minister—sought to dissuade white parents from permitting their children to be educated with black children, by preaching damnation for those who did not uphold segregation.

‪•‬

The next day 100 sticks of dynamite were thrown into Hattie Cotton Elementary School and exploded. The one black elementary student, Patricia Watson, who had sat in class that previous morning did not return. No black children returned to Hattie Cotton Elementary School the following year, and no one faced criminal charges for the bombing that occurred.

‪•‬

Though Brown v. Board of Education determined that school segregation was unconstitutional in 1954, for 3 years white residents in Nashville relied on intimidation and organized political resistance to maintain segregation in the public schools. In 1957, Nashville finally developed a “stair step program” which permitted a few black elementary school students to enroll in eight elementary schools in their zones.

‪•‬

Throughout the summer of 1957, white segregationists in Nashville held intimidation rallies to terrorize black families. In the days leading up to the first day of school, as black parents pre-registered their children for school, mobs of white church members gathered outside buildings with signs that declared that segregation was the “will of God.” One leader declared that “integration can be reversed” and that “blood will run the streets” before Nashville’s schools were integrated.

By the morning of September 9, out of the 126 black children eligible to attend all-white elementary schools in their zones, only 19 black children matriculated. Reverend Stroud gathered crowds at Glenn Elementary to preach about the evils of integration, and white people in cars outside of Jones Elementary held signs emblazoned with KKK iconography and Biblical quotes.

‪•‬

As opposition throughout the morning grew, white mobs crowded the sidewalks and threw rocks and bottles at black children and their parents who attempted to pass through the crowd. By the end of the day, at Glenn Elementary School, half of the white student body of 500 students had not arrived, as white parents chose to deny their elementary school children education instead of permitting them to learn with black children.

‪•‬

That evening, 300 white people gathered downtown and continued to threaten black families who sent their children to school. They strung an effigy in blackface from a stoplight with a note pinned to its chest that read “this could be you.”

‪•‬

As the mob grew to at least 400 around Fehr Elementary, white people burned two outbuildings located on the property of a black family who had sent their daughter to Fehr Elementary and continued to burn crosses on the lawns of black families who had dared to enroll their students that morning.
