Teachers Rebel!


On Friday, March 20, 6-7 pm, in a program dedicated to teachers everywhere, Bread and Roses explores the amazing but true story of a teacher's rebellion in Oaxaca, Mexico, that turned into a massive social justice movement.

Host Carole Scholl will present music and interviews from Oaxaca, including stories from the infamous "March of Pots and Pans," in which thousands of women marched to and took over a TV station. Renowned filmmaker Jill Freidberg will discuss her award-winning film about Oaxaca, A Little Bit of So Much Truth, and we'll hear about current radio activism in indigenous Oaxaca communities.
