In Warriors Don't Cry, the main problem that Melba and the other members of the Little Rock Nine faced was integrating Central High School in 1957-1958. Some of the white students at the school harassed the Little Rock Nine, while others even assaulted them or threw objects at them. In the face of danger, pressure, and harassment, the Little Rock Nine had to get through the school year by employing different solutions. Melba Pattillo, the author of the book, survived by imagining that she was a warrior doing battle in the school. She steeled herself for violence and attacks each day; she could not respond with violence, but she did respond with constant vigilance and mental toughness. The other students handled the violence and harassment in different ways; for example, Minnijean Brown dropped a tray loaded with chili on some students and then was expelled from school for calling some girls "white trash." The other students lasted out the year, and then the school closed rather than integrate.
