Black Aldermen respond to education funding

Responds to the attempt by Rev. James Meeks (also a state senator) to organize a boycott of the first day of school and attempt to register CPS students at New Trier High School in Winnetka. Alderman Anthony Beale of the 9th Ward says that he wants to support the children. He said that if the teachers want more money then they should be able to demonstrate if the kids want more money then the kids should be able to demonstrate. Of course that is preferaced by saying that they don't want this boycott.
