Busing? It’s Sooo 70s

Unlike mood rings, polyester bell-bottoms, pet rocks, busing is back in the news, thanks to Sen. Kamala Harris.

I support busing, Listen, the schools of America are as segregated, if not more segregated, today than when I was in elementary schools. Where states fail to do their duty to ensure equality of all people, and in particular where states create or pass legislation that created inequality, there’s no question that the federal government has a role and a responsibility to step up.

As Kyle Smith in National Review points out: Would the Senator from California, if elected president, use federal power to yank your children out of their schools and hustle them to some other zone because she, Kamala Harris, is disappointed in the racial mix you have created in America’s classrooms?

Forget how much you may have spent to buy a house in a particular neighborhood because it brought access to a particular school system. Forget how much you’ve paid in property taxes to fund those schools. Kamala Harris thinks your kids belong in some other school, maybe one far away and maybe offering a far less valuable education.

Details to be worked out later. Trust her.
