One day after the Brown vs Board of Education case a large group of white protesters were attacking 9 black students known as The Little Rock 9.President Eisenhower was telegraphed by the mayor of Little Rock,Arkansas to send troops becuse national guard and police could not handle the attacking white protesters against desegragation.Also white protesters hit a black journalist with a brick to the head because they thought the journalist was a blacks parent.The governor of Arkansas was restricting entry for the Little Rock Nine.This angered President Eisenhower that the governor was still restricting the blacks entry.He was angry because he had a talk about this with the governor earlier in the week.Then the president dispatched 1,000 paratroopers from the 101st Airborne Division to Little Rock,Arkansas to maintain peace.

This made blacks feel comfortable that troops will protect them if they need protection.This is important because if he had not sent troops,the Little Rock Nine would have died.Then blacks would act violently against the whites and another long bloody civil war would happen and the United States would fall apart. Then the Soviet Union could destroy America because we would be fighting against each other.The Soviets would be able to take America and we would not know that there attacking until it would be too late.

When Dwight sent the 101st Airborne Division many effects happened.For example after he sent the troops he said a speech to explain that he sent the troops to maintain peace.Also after the protesters calmed down the newspapers had pictures of troops with guns that had bayonets on them.The white protesters calmed down after the troops arrived.That shocked many Americans because then many more joined the Ku Klux Klan.This was important because if he would have not said the speech many more Americans would have joined the Ku Klux Klan and he was saying why he sent the troops.

These were some of the effects and reasons why Dwight D. Eisenhower sent the 101st Airborne Division to maintain peace.Also there is many more effects and reasons why he sent the 101st Airborne Division.Dwight helped the civil rights movement very much and got some whites on the side of desegragation.This was important that he sent them because if he had not sent the troops innocent lives would have perished and then we would fall into another long bloody civil war.
