We preview Thursday's TEDxJacksonville Democracy Salon, which features four voices — journalist, artist, activist and technologist — sharing their ideas for building a more cohesive and effective democracy.
Guests:
- Will Brown, race, poverty and inequality reporter at Jacksonville Today.
- Desmond Meade, president and executive director of the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition.
Then, with some 30 schools potentially on the chopping block, parents across Duval County are uniting to fight for their own — and others' — community schools. We talk to three parents and activists on the front lines of this battle about their proposed alternatives to educational consolidation.
Guests:
- Tiffany Clark, Parents Who Lead.
- Katie Hathaway, Public School Defenders.
- Kymberly Wolfson, Save Our School/Atlantic Beach Elementary.
