Massive Oklahoma Teachers Strike at State Capitol

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

 There’s a massive teacher strike in Oklahoma over at the state’s  capitol. They’re wanting the state legislature to increase teacher’s  salaries and provide better funding for the state’s crumbling public  school system. I wasn’t able to get a good picture but at one point I  saw a protester’s sign that said some of his textbooks were older than  his students.

Just to give you an idea as to how big the demonstration was I spent  almost an hour driving around ’til finally finding a parking spot. LOL,  cars were also parked on the side of neighborhood streets up to several  blocks away.
