I heard that myth too, even from Black relatives who were DC residents then.
For the Right to the City exhibit @ Smithsonian Anacostia, we scanned yearbook pics from the Sumner School DCPS archives. Compare Sousa MS, East of the River, ‘55 v ‘60. Enforced school integration spurred DCs white flight

Feeling unexpectedly emotional while packing. A surreal moment to be moving away from the City of Angels. These books + this place have taught me so much.
