About this listen

After a federal court ordered the immediate integration of Mansfield High School, white segregationists blocked the front of the high school, threatening anyone challenging them. Part two of this series, written by Khiry Duffey and hosted by Terrance Thomas, shares what happened that day in Mansfield and how it helped shape events that would happen in Little Rock, Arkansas, the following year. And Mansfield Historian Christopher Ohan delves into the lasting impression the story of 1950s Mansfield holds with city residents today.
