An excerpt from a Michigan NPR site of Nov 12, 2013 reflecting on Busing in Detroit in the 1970s.
Often wondered how that worked out for the city.

“Nancy Jennings highlighted the problems with busing on our Facebook page:
When I was bused in 1975, I went from my relatively well resourced all black school to an all white school that was far more rough around the edges with much poorer environment than I had experienced before. Looking back I don’t think that was the original intent of pushing for busing.
The intent of the case was to make it possible for all students in Detroit to have access to the same high quality education. Forty years later we are still looking for ways to achieve that goal.”
Busing was one of the things that Democrats did that destroyed Detroit.
