Maybe it's just me, but "He did this because he was a racist" isn't dictionary-like, esp. considering the article for Orval Faubus says Faubus resisted for political reasons. In the meantime, I'll replace it with a better fitting wording. Sorry if I'm doing something wrong, this will be my first edit :)

Removed portion:The Little Rock crisis of 1957 was an event that gained worldwide attention as racist Governor Orval Faubus of Arkansas called out the National Guard on September 4 to prevent nine African-American students (known as the Little Rock Nine) from attending Little Rock Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. He did this because he was a racist.

I saw it just as you did. If the person who wrote that garbage is watching this page - Please realize that there are a multitude of reasons one could resist integration. Racism is one of them. So is a belief in States Rights. This isn't your goddamn op-ed page. - Kade
