The integration of schools in Jacksonville, Florida in 1964 followed the tumultuous 1960 Riots, also referred to as Ax Handle Saturday. These riots underscored the ongoing struggle for racial integration not only within schools but also throughout the community. With the NAACP's assistance, these riots were organized to pressure city leaders into acknowledging their grievances and implementing significant reforms.
