A tactic born in Taliaferro County used in Boston

Documented history teaches us so much. The 1965 Student Protest in Taliaferro County, Georgia, was the first time the courts placed a school system in receivership but later gave it back to the locals. Boston looked at the outcome of the decision and knew that to change and move forward, it would have to remove the administration. Making changes based on past failures can improve a system. Wars have been won, the legislature changed, and laws passed because someone changed the narrative. Businesses also learn from past failures not to repeat the same mistake, which is the goal of every operation. I wanted to share this article to applaud Boston for using our inability to integrate the school system to implement integration in Massachusetts.
