The nine were protected by the 101st Airborne Division (and then the Arkansas National Guard) until they were allowed to enroll at Little Rock Central High at the end of September 1957, but they endured a year of verbal and physical harassment at the hands of many white pupils. In her book Warriors Don't Cry, Melba Pattillo described having acid thrown into her eyes as well as an event in which a group of white girls confined her in a bathroom stall and tried to burn her by dropping flaming paper pieces on her from above. Minnijean Brown, another student, was accosted and verbally abused. Due to this reason Little rock nine went on a multi-city tour of the country.
Nine black students were registered by the NAACP in 1957 to attend Little Rock Central High, which had previously only accepted white students.
The most destructive would be a new transfer system that would permit students to transfer outside of their designated attendance area. The revised Blossom Plan reorganized school districts to ensure that Horace Mann High would have a majority of black students and Hall High would have a majority of white students.
This confirmed the objective of the school board to lessen the effects of desegregation even if black children lived closer to Central and would therefore be sent to Horace Mann.
The revised proposal allowed white students to choose out of Horace Mann but excluded black kids from choosing to attend Hall. After unsuccessful negotiations with the school board, the NAACP expressed its displeasure with this new Blossom Plan.
