Throughout the strike, the teachers received overwhelming support from students, parents, and the community. More than 30,000 teachers stood strong and won their demands. Jinny Sims, BCTF past president, led this historic struggle and is coming to Chicago to share how they did it, and the important role teachers play in fighting for social justice and a fair and decent public education.
