In Minneapolis tensions between the teacher’s union and the school board have been ongoing for months. But an acrimonious teacher’s strike and tight budgets are not the only things putting pressure on the school system there. Some activists and parents of color say they feel like the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers has overlooked their concerns.
Guest
Charles Luter is a middle school special education teacher in North Minneapolis who ran on the Coalition for Truth slate for vice-president of the Minnesota Federation of Teachers.
