In 1959, police were called to a segregated library when a Black 9-year-old boy trying to check out books refused to leave, after being told the library was not for Black people.

The boy, Ronald McNair, went on to became an astronaut. The library is also now named after him

@Velocity2222 apart from anything else, imagine being so threatened by a 9 year old wanting to take books out that you call the police.
