Melba Pattillo Beals’ Story of Breaking the Color Barrier

Even if you don't know her name, you probably know Melba Pattillo
Beals. She is a member of the Little Rock Nine, a group of
African-American students who were the first to integrate Central
High in Little Rock, Arkansas. Because of this, Melba
faced telephone threats, brigades of attacking mothers, rogue
police, fireball and acid-throwing attacks, economic blackmail, and
even a price upon her head. But that journey saw Melba Beals
emerged with indestructible faith, courage, strength, and hope. She
opens up about it all on this episode of  Your Story with
Melinda.
