Day 6:Strike. @wkamaubell is out supporting educators in Oakland. If you see this post come down and be part of this historic movement. It's time for the OUSD board members to end this strike by agreeing to a contract that truly puts students first. #OUSDstrike#Unite4OaklandKids
Welcome to March & #WomensHistoryMonth! The theme for 2019 is “Visionary Women: Champions of Peace & Nonviolence.” This year we honor women who have led efforts to end war, violence, and injustice and pioneered the use of nonviolence to change society.
The school board ended last year with a $30 mil surplus and this year their budget increased by $78 mil. None of that went to our classrooms! Now they’re talking cuts. In the middle of our strike. Nope! #OUSDstrike
BREAKING: Oakland families occupy the state building in order to pressure the district to fund our schools. Come down and support. #OUSDstrike#WeAreOakland#Unite4OaklandKids
.@OaklandEA Thousands marched in solidarity w/ striking Oakland Teachers and to demand an end to school closures. The march spanned 2+ miles to highlight how long students would walk to their new school if Roots International is shut down.
#HandsOffOurSchools#StudentdDeserve
And they’re marching. Hundreds of @OaklandEA teachers, students & supporters are spilling out of this East #Oakland park & heading towards Roots International Academy, which the district plans to close. @nbcbayarea#OaklandTeachersStrike
🎤 @BootsRiley: "That’s what y'all are doing — teaching the students how to fight. You’re not just teaching them the facts of what happened, you’re teaching them how make something happen."🎵

The billionaire privatizers that bought the Oakland School Board want to see 24 of Oaklands 86 public schools closed and inevitably reopened as charters. We will not let that happen. #WeAreOakland#Unite4OaklandKids#OUSDstrike
Day 2: The billionaire privatizers that bought the Oakland School Board want to see 24 of Oaklands 86 public schools closed in the next year and inevitably reopened as charters. We will not let that happen. Tune in on Sunday at 6pm for a bargaining update. #Unite4OaklandKids
