Molding of a Working Class Leader

We interview Donna Salonga, a 3rd year ceramics teacher from Skyline HS in Oakland.  Here, she chronicles here spiritual and political journey that took from a teacher reluctant to strike before the struggle began to one determined to carry on the fight until all teachers demands were met.  She discusses her experiences as a picket captain, becoming a leader, why she voted 'NO" on the Tentative agreement and the aftermath of the Oakland teachers strike.
