In September 1957, nine African American students – Minnijean Brown, Elizabeth Eckford, Ernest Green, Thelma Mothershed, Melba Pattillo, Gloria Ray, Terrence Roberts, Jefferson Thomas, and Carlotta Walls – gathered their courage and broke through the invisible barrier to the all-white Little Rock Central High School.

Their world-rocking efforts are commemorated in a monument by John Deering that stands looking toward the Arkansas State Capitol.
What barriers would you like to break with courage in your life?
