"Busing, in which students were transported by school buses to achieve court ordered or voluntary school desegregation, became one of the nation's most controversial civil rights issues in the decades after Brown v. Board of Education (1954)

Examining battles over school desegregation in cities like Boston, Chicago, New York, & Pontiac, Why Busing Failed shows how school officials, politicians, courts, & the news media valued the desires of white parents more than the rights of black students, & how antibusing parents & politicians borrowed media strategies from the civil rights movement to thwart busing for school desegregation. 

This national history of busing brings together well-known political figures such as Richard Nixon & Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley, with less well known figures like Boston civil rights activist Ruth Batson, Florida Governor Claude Kirk, Pontiac housewife & antibusing activist Irene McCabe, & Clay Smothers (the self-proclaimed "most conservative black man in America"). 

This book shows that shows that “busing” failed to more fully desegregate public schools because school officials, politicians, courts, & the news media valued the desires of white parents more than the rights of black students"
