The students are determined, passionate, unified, and they need some support.

Today (Tuesday) there were more student walkouts and the police were en force. The students were teargassed by police who were out in "tactical squad units." The "powers that be" mainly, the police brass and PVUSD administration should NOT be the primary people with input as to how to handle and guide the students from here.

This is a powerful moment and there are many teachers and allies who feel connected enough to the students and the issue to come together collectively, discuss, brainstorm and REALLY focus all this energy into a creative and productive place.

How about teach ins, panels, presenations, community work and PRODUCTIVE ACTION as "consequences" for their actions? Mas ideas? We need to get together now.

NO FINES FOR PARENTS AND NO CRIMINAL CHARGES FOR STUDENTS! This is what democracy looks like.
