About The Tougaloo Nine: At 11 a.m. on March 27, 1961, nine students from the historically black Tougaloo College walked into the all-white Jackson (Miss.) Public Library. Joseph Jackson Jr., their leader, approached the circulation desk. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Tougaloo Nine were a group of African-American students at Tougaloo College who participated in civil disobedience by staging sit-ins of segregated public institutions in Mississippi in 1961. --- ### About Ellen Ann Fentress: Ellen Ann Fentress is a writer and documentary filmmaker in Jackson, Mississippi.
