Last fall marked the 40th anniversary of court ordered integration of Boston's public schools. The events, commonly known as the "Boston Busing Crisis," are remembered for all the wrong reasons--rash implementation, heavy handed-government, and above all else, violence. Forgotten is the larger historical perspective of African American activism that brought the desegregation movement to national attention and continued the struggle when the cameras were turned off. This is their story.
