Description
Correspondence between Mayor Kevin White and a Portsmouth, NH resident who believes that by "attempting to forward minority rights," Boston and the Mayor are taking away the rights of the majority. The mayor responded that while he has always opposed the concept of forced busing, he has never wavered in his support for integration of Boston public schools.
