Major 1971 events include busing rulings and a deadly California quake
The year featured a Supreme Court tilt toward busing and racial balancing as tools for integration, with rulings in Charlotte Mecklenburg and Pontiac prompting debates and boycotts. A devastating 6.9 quake struck the San Andreas fault near Los Angeles on February 9, killing 64 and injuring over a thousand. The year also saw the Senate reject Nixon era foreign aid, then Congress restoring interim funding while policy was reworked.
