Students speaks out for change

In recent weeks, a wave of activism has surged among Portland Public Schools students. While the teachers and the Portland School Board have been engaged in contract negotiations, students have shown their support for their teachers by speaking up and walking out of schools. The students are raising their voices to demand  changes such as smaller classes and better working conditions for teachers. Join us as we speak with student activists Sekai Edwards from Jefferson High School, Keenan Murray of Wilson High School, and Zoe La Du from Cleveland High School.  503-231-8187, moretalkradio@gmail.com
