President Eisenhower had not previously acted in the desegregation argument. However, he then intervened. While the president did not actively support desegregation and had reservations about the Brown decision, he understood his constitutional responsibility to uphold the federal authority. Eisenhower ordered federal troops to stand guard in Little Rock and protect black students as they walked to school. He therefore became the first president since Reconstruction to use federal troops to protect the rights of African Americans. so while he did not necessarily support intergration, he used federal troops to enforce the supreme courts order/decisions.
