On busing, Joe Biden, and the 'pervasiveness of white backlash to school busing'
will point to the fact that schools today haveafter integration reached its high point in the late 1980s. And yet, is that a failure of the policy itself or is that the result of revanchist policies enacted after the successes of school integration? Those who have spent decades researching and writing about desegregation efforts largely agree with the latter.
Biden was right in step with many of his white constituents and whites across the nation who were facing the possibility of court-ordered school desegregation mandates.What was your reaction when you heard Biden defend his work with segregationists and his anti-busing record?Why would you resurrect the memory of these unreconstructed Southern Democrats? Kamala Harris is right.
That’s something that doesn’t get enough attention, which is the way that American life has been resegregated in recent decades. And it’s not just our school system, but it’s so many aspects of our lives. Do you wish that took up more of the conversation?Absolutely. I think wherever African Americans or people of color have been racially segregated across time and space, their political, economic, and social standing is diminished or has been diminished.
