Courageous Conversations

This series held space for intentional conversations about racism and anti-racism. Each conversation revealed unique stories, feelings, and reactions from locals and civic leaders about court-ordered desegregation (busing), and explored the lasting impact from the mid-1970s through today.

SBANP Partners with

MA Action for Justice

As a follow-up to our 2021 Courageous Conversations, Bob Monahan has represented the SBANP on a citywide Desegregation and Busing working group coordinated by Lew Finfer, Director and Community organizer for MA Action for Justice.

 

The committee was formed to prepare for WGBH’s American Experience documentary entitled “The Busing Battleground.” The documentary is scheduled to air nationally on September 11, 2023.
