Answer:

The bombing of the three locations of the "Labour Day Bombings" in a Mighty Long Way was motivated by Racism.

                                                                         

Explanation:

Prior to the bombing, there had been ongoing efforts to desegregate Little Rock’s schools.

The Little Rock Nine was a group of nine African American students enrolled in Little Rock Central High School in 1957. Their enrolment was followed by the Little Rock Crisis, in which the students were initially prevented from entering the racially segregated school by Orval Faubus, the Governor of Arkansas. They then attended after the intervention of President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Coming almost two years to the day after the Little Rock Nine’s first attempt to attend Central High, the KKK coordinated set of explosions evinced a stark and violent reminder of the continuing racial tensions in Arkansas’s capital. The damage was limited, however, and the effort was arguably more symbolic than substantive. At the same time, the bombings highlighted the fact that, while the determined effort to resist the integration of Central High had finally been overcome—with the historic high school having opened its doors for the 1959–60 school year to a student body that included both blacks and whites—the change had not yet been universally accepted.

The three locations that were bombed were:

  1. the school board offices,
  2. the front of the building that housed the mayor’s office,
  3. and a city-owned car that was parked in Fire Chief Gann Nalley’s driveway.

Answer:

Refer below.

Explanation:

The fire chief partook in police chief eugiene smith's arrangement to separate a segregationist horde revolting with fire houses. The city hall leader talked transparently against Faubus' enemy of hostile to integrationist position. Furthermore, the director was focused on maintaining government law. The bombarding were arranged as a demonstration of reprisal.
