What happened at the end of your first year at Central?
Little Rock closed the schools the following year rather than have them
integrated, so I spent a whole year out of school waiting for the NAACP to take
the case through the Supreme Court. Then I left my family and moved to Santa
Rosa, California. I had to move. The Ku Klux Klan put a reward on my head:
$10,000 dead, $5,000 alive. All nine of us left--some of us because they were
going to college, some of us with their parents.
