The effort to integrate Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas required the presence of federal troops to enforce court orders, particularly the decision in Brown v. Board of Education. Governor Orval Faubus initially ordered the Arkansas National Guard to prevent the enrollment of nine black students. However, President Dwight D. Eisenhower federalized the Arkansas National Guard and deployed troops of the 101st Airborne Division to escort and protect the students as they attended classes.
