A Novel By Michael Patrick Murphy
Created by graduate students in the History and American Studies departments at UMass Boston, this site showcases letters, photographs, legal documents, artifacts, and interviews that explore de facto segregation in Boston and the federally-mandated desegregation of Boston public schools. Students unearthed materials from various collections in separate Boston archives, selected a representative sampling, and presented them here, together, in new collaborative context.
Neighborhood Lines paperback edition is available for purchase online here and downloadable on Amazon.com for Kindle.

A Rainy Sunday, Good day for a book !
A got a couple good ones up there 😉.......
Kyrie’s comments and wiping his sneakers on the #celtics #leprechaun #logo?
:
As long as we live we will have those who choose to use racial slurs , it has existed for 100’s of years for all races ethnicities and religions. Catholic vs Protestant, whites on Jewish , English on Irish , Black on African , Puerto Rican vs Dominican etc and on and on !
:
Having a Mindful tongue is a lifelong journey in the words we choose in all situations
In passion , anger, and sadness, the choice of using negative derogatory words tend to be an automatic impulse within some people !
:
We learned name calling as kids and throughout history of all mankind. I recall situations in high school ! When Irish ☘️ kid whose parents were from Ireland calling The patrons in the blackthorn a bunch of turkeys or mics 🤦♂️🤔.
:
Bottom line is that there is no tolerance for this bs in such a diverse 21st century !
If I heard this at a game I would gladly drag the cultprit to the TD Garden/Fenway Security staff to ejected the Ass!
Maybe in the future AI can identify the voices and we watch them get tossed out and banned on the Jumbotron !!
:
The fact that a fan’s favorite player is David Ortiz yet he/she uses a racial slur on another person of color explains the uneducated, unconscious , un-evolved idiocracy of that fan. But that should not be what identifies a city’s fan base, that in itself is biased!!
:
In this #cityofchampions We love our amazing athletes of all ethnicities and color. Yes #Bostonfans are tough as can be and you will always get an F***You if necessary Kyrie !! Wipe you shoes off elsewhere!
:
Like Cedric Maxewell said “get out he’ll out of here with this ***** “ !
:
We will always face good vs evil
That’s the war we are in here on all levels !
:
Wonder what the #Celtics #Big3 have to say ?
:
Brown, added, “It bothers me if the construct of racism is used as a crutch or an opportunity to executive a personal gain. I’m not sure that’s the case, but racism is bigger than a playoff game.’'
