 our youth-led action for our education, and for our futures. Our education 
 system here in California has been left in the dust for far too long. 
 Teachers and students are bearing the brunt of the consequences. With the 
 5th largest economy in the World but one of the worst states in the U.S for 
 per pupil spending - we need to stop spending more on prisoners than we do 
 on students. \n\nClimate Justice and education are the two foremost issues 
 affecting the next generation, and it’s time we took more action to 
 address the latter. With teachers whom are barely floating above the 
 poverty line, with undergrads whom are being crushed under the weight of 
 their student debts, and with high school students being dumped with 
 millions and millions in budget cuts, education reform is now, more than 
 ever, a necessity. And that’s why we are coming out to March for 
 Education on November 9th.\n\nThe November 9th March for Education is 
 completely student-led, student-run, and student organized. Students are 
 finally getting involved and taking back their education: let’s go out 
 and support them. Students want a brighter future, and a better, more equal 
 and fair education system. Education is important, and youth voices in 
 education are even more important.\n\nWe’ve already marched for science, 
 for gun violence, for gender equality, and for climate. \nLet’s finally 
 march for Education!\n\nABOUT: GEN-Up\n\nGEN-Up is a student-led social 
 justice organization and student-activist coalition that strives to 
 advocate for education through the power of youth voices!\n\nBorne at the 
 wake of many teacher strikes and educational funding disputes, GenUp is for 
 the students by the students. From its bottom to top, youth run all aspects 
 of GenUp. GenUp strives to be a long term agent and champion of educational 
 advocacy and change.\n\nThrough community and grassroots organizing 
 engagement of youth, we seek to consistently fight for student 
 representation and youth perspectives on all facets of education 
 advocacy.\nGenUp seeks to fight for an education system that prioritizes 
 students and educators first: an education system where all students have 
 equal access to resources, a system where educators have a fair, living 
 wage, and an education system that allows its students and teachers to 
 thrive within their communities.\n\nORGANIZING PARTNERS\n\nWomen's March
