Greyhound's customers included (and continue to include) black, white, and other races. Southern whites were Greyhound customers, possessed most political and economic power, a majority of whom wanted segregated buses, and that desire could be enforced (either legally, economically, or otherwise). While a majority of southern blacks may not have wanted segregated buses, Greyhound acquiesced to those demands of their customers with the political and economic power.

While race may no longer be an issue, other issues remain where companies make decisions based on the political and economic power of their customers.
