The violence of this weekend is not democracy in action. In a democracy we use ballots, not bullets; voices, not violence to express differences. We'll talk more this week about the nature of violent rhetoric.
Our guests today are here to talk about the role of public schools in supporting their communities. Executive Director of the Wisconsin Public Education Network, Heather DuBois Bourenane is here repping the advocacy and support WPEN coordinates for public schools.
