Boston Against Busing: Race, Class, and Ethnicity in the 1960s and 1970s

by RonaldP.Formisano (Author)

Synopsis

Perhaps the most spectacular reaction to court-ordered busing in the 1970s occurred in Boston, where there was intense and protracted protest. Ron Formisano explores the sources of white opposition to school desegregation. Racism was a key factor, he argues, but racial prejudice alone cannot explain the movement.
