The Busing Battleground (2023)

Directed by Sharon Grimberg, Cyndee Readdean

“The decades-long road to school desegregation”

Documentary, History · 1h 53m

The Busing Battleground pulls back the curtain on the volatile effort to end school segregation, detailing the decades-long struggle for educational equity that preceded the crisis. It illustrates how civil rights battles had to be fought across the North as well as the South and reckons with the class dimensions of the desegregation saga, exploring how the neighborhoods most impacted by the court’s order were the poorest in the city.
