CFJ Featured in WireTap Magazine and The District Weekly

(February 1, 2010)

Californians for Justice was recently featured in WireTap Magazine for our pioneering work in passing a resolution in Oakland Unified that would make an A-G Curriculum standard for all students. (A-G courses are the classes that allow a student to be eligible for CSU/UC). Instead of racially-motivated trackin and deadend classes, all students in Oakland will now have the option to have an education that guidees them to college and career prep.

Student leader Jolene Rodriguez was chosen by The District Weekly as one of eight people by to know in Long Beach for standing up to Mayor Bob Foster and for clean air at the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. To read either article, please click on the magazine title above.
