south philly high students to address student reform commission

Today, dozens of Asian students from South Philadelpha High School who have been boycotting the school in the wake of last week's racial attacks will address The School District of Philadelphia's School Reform Commission about their experiences, and offer suggestions on moving forward. Here's the schedule:

1:30 p.m. Gathering at 11th & Vine Sts., Chinese Christian Church Annex
1:45 p.m. Departure to School District of Philadelphia
2-5 p.m. School Reform Commission Meeting, 440 N. Broad Street, 2nd flr. auditorium

If you're in the area, and/or part of the community, please considering coming out to march and support these students as they testify at this meeting. For more information, visit the Asian Americans United website here.
