He describes abominable means whereby a progressive, law-abiding city was demoralized and what amounts to a police state, where free speech has been almost completely stifled, was imposed by a politically ambitious, fanatical minority. The situation at Little Rock was an especially hopeful one at the beginning. Following the Supreme Court ruling of May 1954, Mr. Blossom had worked out a careful and far-seeing plan for gradual integration which had been approved by the school board, the federal courts, and for which he had won the support, group by group, of the majority of the community. But the dissident elements were being worked on and organized by a handful of ruthless extremists and unscrupulous political schemers. Economic black- mail, political blackmail, threats of arson and personal violence were all employed to unite and inflame the opposition. Throughout the late summer of 1957 rumors of mob violence and reprisal boiled. A Chancery judge granted an injunction against integration . A Federal judge overrulled him. On September 2nd, the day before nine Negro students were due to enter Little Rock Central high school, Governor Faubus, urged on by politicians from other parts of Arkansas and the south, called out the National Guard...ostensibly to prevent disorder but actually to prevent integration. The Presidentu a answer was to send in federal troops to protect the Nero children and the integrity of the judicial processes. These dreadful events - from which neither the South nor the Nation has recovered - are reported as they happened and in their full implication for the the future by the man who was most deeply involved. Virgil Blossom here analyzes the southern revolt against integration which culminated in the Little Rock crisis. His far seeing views of how the problem can be solved will be of great interest not only in this country but throughout the world."],"dc_format":["application/pdf"],"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":null,"dcterms_publisher":["Fayetteville, Ark. : University of Arkansas Libraries"],"dc_relation":null,"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":null,"dcterms_subject":["African Americans--Arkansas","Civil rights--Arkansas","Race discrimination--Arkansas","Segregation--Arkansas"],"dcterms_title":["Advertising Copy of Superintendent Blossom's Book"],"dcterms_type":["Text"],"dcterms_provenance":["University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.

Blossom The former Superintendent of Schodis in Little Rock, Arkansas, reveals how a law-abiding American city, striving to solve a harsh and complex problem by democratic means, was demoralized and dominated by certain power-hungry men coldly exploj_ ting the passions of their neighbors. *********************** Preliminary description of IT HAS HAPPENED HERE Around the broad-shouldered figure of Virgil T o Blosser burst the full violence of the school. segrega tion conflict which shattered the public peace, divided the nation and gave comfort to our enemies. In his capacity as Superin- tendent of Schools in Little Rock, Arkansas, Mr. o Blossom was, for more than four years, the storm center around whom the controversy raged. In the first place he is an educa.tor and school adriinistrator - not only by profession but by cormmitment. Because he is an educator and neither a poli- tician nor a proselytizer he sees the school segregation issue in profoundly practical terms -- not as a focus for contradictory passions, nor even a.s an over- arching philosophical problem but as a question which intimately and explicitly affects the policy and day-to-day detail of public education in the South. Sur- rounded by fanatics he is a man dedicated to the rational and the real. In the second place he is, by temperarnent and conviction, a moderate. As a Southerner he understands the intensity of the opposition to desegregation; as a firm believer in the democratic process he has refused to recognize lawlessness as a means of political action. In the third place, he is a man of extraordinary physical and moral courage. In 1955 Mr. Bloaaom'a fellow citizens voted him the \"Little Rock Man of the Year\". In 1957 those self -same qualities of professional integrity, moderation and courage which had won him the award marked him out as the man the die-hard segre- gationists had to get. He received forty- five threats to bomb his school; his life was threatened ; his home was threatened; he was shot at on streets of Little Rock But he would not back down."],"dc_format":["application/pdf"],"dcterms_identifier":null,"dcterms_language":null,"dcterms_publisher":["Fayetteville, Ark. : University of Arkansas Libraries"],"dc_relation":null,"dc_right":["http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"dcterms_is_part_of":null,"dcterms_subject":["African Americans--Arkansas","Civil rights--Arkansas","Race discrimination--Arkansas","Segregation--Arkansas"],"dcterms_title":["Advertising Copy of Superintendent Blossom's Book"],"dcterms_type":["Text"],"dcterms_provenance":["University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.
