On Tuesday night there was a protest. All of my roommates went, and I did not. I'm still trying to figure out how to understand the stories, how to be there for them, and how to continue on as a player in a system I feel like continually shows its flaws rather than its strengths.
Here's Ali's first hand account of the protest (there are three parts to this- I highly recommend you read all three) http://aliway.tumblr.com/post/5213041147/tusd-board-meeting-protest-save-ethnic-studies-part#disqus_thread
And here's an article including some photos and some video http://azstarnet.com/news/local/education/precollegiate/article_280abcc6-c923-5da4-9700-4eced2e105be.html
