i was teacher at martin luther king school.rd before. and i tried to figure out what i walked in to take my grades and theéñ?ñ? student who was --y the principal approached me and said that she was head on ññ?ñ?e principal. but -- and shea said -- i told her to get her fat a off of me. i looked at my student and said i don't appreciate that type of language but i could understand her. and i started thinking whatz:uri would say. i wrote down a few things, nothing to say but do the right thing. i believe the children are the future. teach them well let them lead the÷3ñ?ñ? way. show them the beauty they possess inside. give them a sense of pride to make it easier. teach them well. let's teach them well, not sit be a+zñ?ñ? teacher in san franciscç masters, english credential, and i'm not capable of teaching in the bayview. that doesn't bother me as much as mynÑñ?ñ? student being sat or some reason. at this point in my lifeañ?ñ?ñ t doesn't matter. what matters is the childrennhte treated fairly, with respect. i have one more degree.

there was no physical abuse and bullying of students at martin luther king. well, i would say there was a thorough investigation and the staff involved in that incident haven't been interviewed bit management at the school district. so what kind of thorough investigation was done by school district about the bullying of students at martin luther king school? furthermore we just heard about the charter school and want a music room bechtel and the program are involve in san francisco as are other privatization companis who want to privatize the schools and drive the schools towards core standards. i would argue that is for the destruction of education. it's not the advance of students of san francisco and the students of this country. core standards are being used not to provide more teaching, more education, but to drive more testing and to drive really the students out and further privatization of the school. another issue was a video done of this incident at the school. there was a video done of the physical abuse of the student at the school and apparently

okay, the martin luther king story.had happened to mention to the ambassador that i've written my m.a. thesis, my masters thesis on a montgomery bus boycott which first brought martin turow's attention. we all remember that event. and this is why what happened happened because i forget the context, but i'd mention this to him. so that morning, and sitting there and i am reading and like the other spanish newspapers, they tend to be published in tablet form. and on the cover is a picture of martin luther king that the pope paul the sixth. and i'm reading and it says that it's her married the king is coming to maturity today. it's that day's paper in the pictures taken the the day before. after a while. and then the phone rang. this is ambassador woodward. what did i do now? is what i'm thinking because the ambassador doesn't call you on the phone. the ambassador told somebody to so somebody else to call you on the phone. so i get a call from the president of the united states in that context and he tells me that martin l

superintendent, i am from martin luther king. >> i'm sorry, do you have a speaker card? >> i don't have a speaker card. >> i'm sorry. >> i am asking if i could say a few words, please? >> no. you don't have a speaker card. >> i just wanted to thank superintendent carranza for taking a stand and for those watching online, letting them know the reality of what is really going on. if he is bold enough to take a stand, i hope and a pray that everyone here in this room, on this board, all educators, parents, security, secretaries, whoever they may be, who are in charge of our children when they are not in our care, and they are at the school site that we have the utmost compassion and respect for our children. so i just wanted to say thank you because all of you know on this board know how many times that have i come forward and asked for help, but what i have gotten in return is removal. i would like for you to reach out to me, because i know what works in the bayview and in the southeast. i know the families and the communities in the bayview. i know the church leaders in t

the next year at the age of 18, i meant to her martin luther king junior. the action of rosa parks, people in my camera and leadership of dr. king inspired me to get in the way, to get in trouble. for more than 50 years have been getting in trouble, good chabot, necessary travel. [applause] so across that bridge is really a lesson about getting in chabot, good trouble. and that's when i think in america today we need more people to get in trouble, big trouble. if you believe in something that is so right, so dear, so necessary, you have to get in trouble. but before we got in any trouble as students come is to people, we studied. we just did make up one morning and say were going to go sit in. we didn't just dream one day they would come to washington and god the freedom ride or route march on washington as he did in 1863, there were going to march to mark them as they did in 1865. we studied are we prepared ourselves as college students, and the city of nashville. every tuesday night, a group of us have made it 6:30 p.m. were we attempted to do in south afr

martin luther king jr.me to visit with us and he said he had asked religious leaders to come to selma. tuesday, march 9th, more than a thousand priests, rabbis came and walked across the bridge, walked across the bridge. [applause] so we made a lot of progress. but there's still the bridges we need to cross to create a more perfect union, to create the beloved community, but because that day, president andrew johnson came to the congress on march 15 and made one of the most meaningful speeches at any american president had made in honor time on the whole question of civil rights or voting rates. we call it the we shall overcome speech. he started his speech tonight by saying i speak tonight. he went on to say a time, history and faith in man for freedom. more than a century ago at lexington and concorde, at appomattox and selma, alabama. he introduced the voting rights act and before he could quote the speech, he said can we shall overcome. i looked at dr. martin luther king junior. we were watching when di

martin martin luther king junior. as all of we watched our family work in the community and we were to work with other people. it was a little crazy growing up in a political family. we had seven different phone lines and my mom wouldn't get the one with the seven buttons and we had seven phones and all of us on the phone all the time. no hold button. our house was always full of people. i see many of you here that became family. you were there all the time, working on elections, and after my dad ran you helped my brother run. the same people helping us, being part of the family, working together for the city. i remember some of the crazy things we did growing up in political life. going to i think it's call -- i don't know if it's called the muni lot or parking lot and where the buss are in the morning so we could put a handout on every seat and bus that was there. i remember standing out in front of markets and it was raining and horrible and saying "will you vote for my dad" and milton loved this. he loved this ene
