Explanation:
Boston, an African-American community experienced school busing plans in the 1970s. This school busing required African-Americans students to be sent to white schools and white students to be sent to African-American schools. This was in the bid to achieve racial balance.
There was protest over this plan. This led to the Boston busing crisis. The school and city of Boston was impacted by the crisis.
