Because of SCOTUS decision in Brown v. Board, 61 yrs ago the brave Little Rock Nine were empowered to desegregate their school.
Today I invited one of them –Carlotta Walls LaNier– to witness Kavanuagh's hearing. She's a living testament to the importance of the Supreme Court.
Honored to have former President Bill Clinton, Secretary Clinton and Ernest Green join us for tonight’s performance of LITTLE ROCK.
