And the best book I know of on the subject: “Common Ground,” by J. Anthony Lucas. It shows how busing was so turbulent, by diving into the perspectives of three families. — PolitiTweet.org

A delightful and scenery read from @RoigFranzia about what happens after debates, and what gets served up: "Classic spin. As canned as Spam, but served up so economically you might just buy it.” https://t.co/Wf7254Gddw — PolitiTweet.org

The post-debate debate continues, with Bernie Sanders not-so-subtly contrasting with Kamala Harris: "Let us all be very clear about this.

"I heard and I listened to and I respect Sen Harris,” Joe Biden says in Chicago. "But we all know that 30 seconds and 60 seconds on a debate can’t do justice.” He goes on with a long defense of his record on civil rights. — PolitiTweet.org
