Learn in the Classroom or Learn in the Streets
California is first in prison spending and 41st in spending on education. Therein lies the the root cause of the problems we see in our communities. Let us silence the violence and invest in education.

MK and Sandy Take on Prop 13
Two of our organizers from San Francisco, MK and Sandy, sent us a video they recorded last Friday about the need to repeal Prop 13, a piece of California legislation that was passed in 1978. Prop 13 created a cap on property tax rates in the state, reducing them by an average of 57% and totally bankrupting our funding for schools. We need to repeal Prop 13 so we can get funding back to our broken schools!






I have many friends that are teachers that tell me the same thing! For what they are doing for the youth, teachers are definitely not getting compensated enough. It’s sad to see so much money spent on prisons and not education.
i heard that they just laid off a lot of teachers this week.. whack
It’s probably not easy to invest more into the education system but I think it has to be done. The prisons are needed too but education is so much more important
