A people's history of the new Boston

The old Boston and the new Boston

To hell with urban renewal

Community organizers and advocacy planners

A rekindled civil rights movement

From school reform to desegregation

The conflict over the Vietnam conflict

The media and the protest movements

Mothers for adequate welfare

The illusion of inclusion and assault by acronyms

A new threat from newcomers; gentrification

Do-it-yourself community development corporations

Public housing on trial

The tenants' movement and rent control

People before highways

The mothers of Maverick Street

Shadow boxing in the public garden

Boston jobs for Boston residents

The battle over busing

Fighting for a fair share

A downturn in activism

Back to the neighborhoods

Boston today.
