According to this poll from 1999, 48% of African Americans preferred keeping their kids in neighborhood schools while 44% of them supported busing.

The national press secretary for Kamala Harris says that she supports busing in 2019. Interesting.
NEW: According to her national press secretary, 2020 presidential hopeful Kamala Harris favors reinstating school busing, but has so far declined to provide specific details on what her plan would look like.

My latest for @DCExaminer with @JohnRobertGage.

I suspect the next Dem debate may be over whether, if it was racist for Biden to oppose busing in the 1970’s, it is therefore also racist to oppose reimplementing busing in 2019, or if things have improved enough over the past few decades that what was racist then is no longer.
