Executive Order
10730:
Desegregation of
Central High School (1957)
This executive order
of September 23, 1957,
signed by President
Dwight Eisenhower,
sent federal troops
to maintain order and peace
while the integration
of Central High School in Little Rock, AR,
took place.
On May 17, 1954,
the U.S. Supreme
Court ruled in Brown v. Board of Education
that segregated
schools were "inherently unequal"
and ordered that U.S.
public schools
be desegregated "with
all deliberate speed."

Trump's travel ban
On June 26, 2018,
the Supreme Court
upheld
the third iteration
of President Trump's
executive order
that bars most people
from seven countries
from traveling to the
United States.
That version bans
almost all
immigrants,
refugees and visa
holders
from Iran, Libya,
Somalia, Syria, Yemen,
North Korea and
Venezuela.
The order became
known
as a "Muslim ban,"
because it focuses
largely
on Muslim-majority
countries like Yemen.

On July 26, 1948,
President Harry
Truman
signed Executive
Order 9981,
which declared that
“there shall be
equality
of treatment and
opportunity
for all persons in the armed services
without regard to
race, color,
religion or national
origin.”
Officially,
the United States’ armed services
were desegregated.
But in the early
1960s,
the military was
still
rife with
discrimination,
particularly off
base.
