1.   Batson described the situation in the Boston Public Schools as de
   facto segregation. What is the difference between de facto
   segregation and legally sanctioned segregation? How did Batson
   account for the situation in Boston?

2.   In Boston, what was the difference between integration and
   desegregation?

3.   Why did Hicks and others object to Batson’s description of the
   schools as segregated?

4.   Why do you think Batson insisted that the schools needed to be
   desegregated? Why did she believe it wasn’t enough to fix schools
   in their local communities?

5.   In the 1990s, President Bill Clinton argued there was a public
   interest in sustaining integrated schools. What is it? Is there an
   educational value to school integration?

6.   What rights did the “forced busing” protesters think they had lost?
   What were the similarities and dissimilarities between the
   campaign against desegregation and the civil rights struggle?

7.   Do you think that the white majority had a moral and legal
   responsibility to help blacks in Boston’s impoverished
   neighborhoods? Do civic responsibilities cross community
   boundaries or is each com- munity responsible for only itself?

8.   How do you think young students would have reacted to the busing
   without pressure from their par- ents and the presence of the
   media?
9.   In
   Milliken v. Bradley
   , a case involving school desegregation in
   Detroit, Michigan, in 1974, the US Supreme Court ruled that
   busing procedures were confined to school districts within the city.
   In Boston, desegregation busing had also involved only city schools.
   What do you think would have happened if suburban communities
   had been affected by court-ordered busing?
