How did Gomez’s grandmother “desegregate” Revere Beach? Why was busing resorted to in an attempt to achieve racial balance in the city’s schools?

Comment on Gerald Gills “Timeline of Boston’s Black Protest, 1930-1960.” What does it tell about the ways in which the struggle for equal opportunity in Boston went way beyond education? Why was Boston important in Malcolm X’s life? What does “A Swimming Lesson” reveal about Boston’s social geography, i.e. the way in which de facto segregation often exists in many of the city’s residential and recreational areas? And why has the struggle for quality education for all residents in the city lasted so long? Why were so many residents of South Boston opposed, even violently opposed, to busing as a way to achieve racial balance in the citys public schools? How did busing expose underlying class and racial issues in the city? Why is the Soiling of Old Glory photograph so emblematic of the citys racial climate in the mid-1970s? Compare and contrast how Ted Landsmark and Joseph Rakes look back on that era and how the event impacted their lives. How do the history of Bostons pro sports teams and the experiences of athletes like Bill Russell shed light on race relations in the city? What do we learn from Derrick Jacksons article A Racial Lab for the 21st Century that might suggest that race relations in Boston have improved in recent years?Below are links to these topicshttps://canvas.endicott.edu/courses/19047/files/1259190/download?verifier=yAYy0hytLRM93KIvLMgyEnWTA7PVAn7A4kfpzmCW&wrap=1https://canvas.endicott.edu/courses/19047/files/1259187/download?verifier=WPAGzmIhr4TQm11fNbizcoP5RnPVLygie1T1iXzE&wrap=1https://canvas.endicott.edu/courses/19047/files/1259196/download?verifier=vopZMS3r8ohlCYMWPaxDhwaZMYoVV0bZ8bqeQnnm&wrap=1https://canvas.endicott.edu/courses/19047/files/1259193/download?verifier=YGv8ipU2x1imiSpn707rhVOtMvle0XtOnkHai36r&wrap=1https://canvas.endicott.edu/courses/19047/files/1259097/download?verifier=KatcPYjnXfzp29oGJtoOvoWrDmJfFd621goEzmIz&wrap=1https://canvas.endicott.edu/courses/19047/files/1259061/download?verifier=pBPj3Wbk4mrXoTeXL2hA9nY8QfsYJaVnPF3PGxjW&wrap=1
