Newsday – Long Island, NY, March 1971
From Letters to the Editor
Segregated Island
Hurrah for Martin Buskin (Feb.15) and Harold Levine (Feb.22) for their incisive articles about the segregated nature of Long Island’s schools and communities.
Hurrah for Westbury and the few other Long Island towns where all people live and educate their children together.
