Ep. 221 Keeping Public Education Public

Texas Impact's Weekly Witness

We continue our summer fun with the third installment of our four-part series on public education. The goal of this series is to prepare listeners to discuss public education issues with elected officials and candidates for office…note-taking is encouraged. In today’s episode, Scott has a lively conversation with one of the state’s leading advocates for public schools, Rev. Charles Foster Johnson. Charlie is Executive Director of Pastors for Texas Children—and he’s never afraid to mix it up with elected officials. Following Charlie, Josh Houston unpacks the recent Supreme Court decision Carson v Makin, which could impact the Texas voucher debate next session. The Weekly Word features Texas Impact Board member, Rev. Erin Walter, Executive Director of the Texas Unitarian Universalist Justice Ministry.
