PLS HELP
read the paragraph from president Kennedy’s speech on civil rights then the following question
“This afternoon, following a series of threats and defiant statements, the presence of Alabama National Guardsmen was required on the University of Alabama to carry out the final and unequivocal order of the United States District Court. That order called for the admission of two clearly qualified young Alabama residents who happened to have been born Negro. That they were admitted peacefully on the campus is due in good measure to the conduct of the students of the University of Alabama, who met their responsibilities in a constructive way.”
In this paragraph Kennedy is referring to which event in U.S. Civil Rights History?
