The landmark 1954 Supreme Court ruling, Brown v. Board of Education, brought the promise of integration to Little Rock, Arkansas, but it was hard-won for the nine black teenagers chosen to integrate Central High School in 1957. They ran the gauntlet between a rampaging mob and the heavily armed Arkansas National Guard, dispatched by Governor Orval Faubus to subvert federal law and bar them from entering the school. President Dwight D. Eisenhower responded by sending in soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division, the elite Screaming Eagles - and transformed Melba Pattillo and her eight friends into reluctant warriors on the battlefield of civil rights. May 17, 1994, marks the fortieth anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education ruling, which was argued and won by Thurgood Marshall, whose passion and presence emboldened the Little Rock struggle. Melba Pattillo Beals commemorates the milestone decision in this first-person account of her ordeal at the center of the violent confrontation that helped shape the civil rights movement. Beals takes us from the lynch mob that greeted the terrified fifteen-year-old to a celebrity homecoming with her eight compatriots thirty years later, on October 23, 1987, hosted by Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton in the mansion that Faubus built. As they returned to tour the halls of the school, gathering from myriad professions and all corners of the country, they were greeted by the legacy of their courage - a bespectacled black teenager, the president of the student body at Central High. Beals chronicles her harrowing junior year at Central High, when she began each school day by polishing her saddle shoes and bracing herself for battle. Nothing, not eventhe 101st Airborne Division, could blunt the segregationists' brutal organized campaign of terrorism that included telephone threats, insults and assaults at school, brigades of attacking mothers, rogue police, restroom fireball attacks, acid-throwers, vigilante stalkers, economic

BEST lip sunscreen I have ever used
Size: Pack of 1
best lip sunscreen I have ever used. Currently in/on Curaçao and no burn! Was out all day yesterday in the sun and this stick was only reapplied 3 times between 8am and 4pm. Reef safe too, that is important to me!

Great sunscreen
Size: Pack of 1
Love it! Not greasy, rubs in well, & doesn't smell. Doesn't leave the typical white sheen if you blend in well. Great to add foundation over. Ingredients are less chemicaly than other products.

Good protection, water resistant
Size: Pack of 1
I love their products. This is no exception. Used it recently in the Caribbean and Florida. Did a great job of protecting my lips and also seemed to have some resistance to washing off when I was swimming or snorkeling.

This lip balm has worked well for me overall
Size: Pack of 1
This lip balm has worked well for me overall. It does what I want from an SPF lip balm and I have not had any major complaints using it. The only minor downside is that it is a little soft, so when you first start using a tube you may notice a few small chunks on your lips. That has not been a big enough issue to bother me much, but it is worth mentioning. Aside from that, it has been a good product and I would keep using it.
