(2821) Demonstrations, Segregation, Busing, Pontiac, Michigan, 1971

Women and children stand in front of a bus, refusing to let it pass out of the schoolyard, as reporters look on during an anti-busing protest, Pontiac, Michigan. Many carry placards and appear to be reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

Photographers Note: “In Pontiac, busing of students was a major issue. The courts ordered schools to transport students from one school to another in order to integrate them.”
