ABC News: Chicago Students Boycott First Day of School

ABC News: Chicago Students Boycott First Day of School: "Rev. Ira Acree of Greater St. John Church in Chicago, who helped organize the boycott, echoed that sentiment.

'We're bringing these children to Winnetka today because we have exhausted other methods,' Acree said. 'We want the governor and the senate and legislators all across the state to hear our plea. We want them to see the innocent children from Chicago who are victims of apartheid-style education. We want them to see the inequalities and disparities in our system.'"
