When White kids get bussed to a predominately Black High School, the building turns into
"Halls of Anger."
After a court orders that all the schools must be integrated, a group of White students are bussed to an
all-Black high school in Los Angeles. The presence of the White students is deeply resented by the Black students,
resulting in enormous racial tensions.
Trying to save the situation is teacher Quincy Davis (Calvin Lockhart) who is a former basketball champ turned
teacher. He works tirelessly to reach the students so that a massive riot doesn't break out.
