ng at how to improve our
schools and access to our schools without looking at how the past
impacted the present," said Elaine Ng, executive director of the Boston
Chinatown Neighborhood Center, which hosted the story circle where Powell
described her visit back to her old school.As the daughter of Chinese
immigrants, Ng learned to speak English as a kindergarten student in a
Boston public school. But after her family moved from Chinatown to a
white neighborhood in 1976, students threw stones at her when she walked
to school. Ng said one of her frustrations is that people don't
recognize all the ripple effects busing had."It didn't matter whether or
not you were on a bus," she said. "Racial tensions in the
city were just really high."The uproar started in 1974, when a federal
judge imposed busing after a lawsuit claimed black students were getting
lower-quality education than children who attended mostly white schools.
Black students were bused to schools in white areas, and white students
went to black neighborhoods. The National Guard was called in amid demonstrations
and riots; school buses got police escorts.The unrest continued for years.
In 1976, a news photographer caught a white teenager attempting to spear
a black man with an American flag during a busing protest outside
City Hall. In 1979, 15-year-old black football player Darryl Williams was
left paralyzed by a white sniper's bullet during a high school game.Alexander

agreed this week to require public school teachers to pay union fees
a move that bolsters the states connection to organized labor as
others move toward a right-to-work status.The bill passed Thursday in the
General Assembly and is headed to the desk of Democratic Gov. Martin
OMalley for signing after Monday, the final day of Marylands 2013 legislative
session.The bill is also part of a larger progressive agenda put forth
this year by leaders of the Democrat-controlled Assembly that includes the
approval of tax increases and one of the toughest gun-control proposals
in the country.State Sen. David Brinkley calls the fees a forced tax
and disagrees with union claims that representation will benefit every teacher.If
the representation is so exceptional, then everybody would join, he said.
I just dont buy it. Its a political payback that has nothing
substantial to do with the merits of education.The bill will require tens
of thousands of public school teachers to pay close to 1 percent
of their paychecks in so-called fair share fees to cover the cost
of contract negotiations and grievance representation.Union leaders say
the legislation attempts to create uniformity across Maryland and that non-union
workers should share the cost.We
