Protesters Rally Against Cleveland Busing Plan Outside School Board
More than 200 chanting parents gathered outside the Cleveland Board of Education to oppose the desegregation busing plan set to begin in September. They delivered letters refusing participation, while building doors remained locked. Dr. Charles Leftwich, court-appointed chief of desegregation, met five parents but rejected a larger meeting with the group’s lawyer and media. The demonstrators, urging rights protection, labeled Leftwich as an outsider, and the protest lasted about an hour.
