Explanation
As a member of the Little Rock Nine, Melba Pattillo Beals could describe being escorted to school by soldiers, the dangers the students faced, and her reasons for attending Central High School. Her memoir could also relate how her family coped with the stress. She could not know exactly what the angry people in the crowd were thinking, and her account would not necessarily describe Central High before integration.
