Municipal Mania

Listen to a discussion about the Richmond Public Schools strategic plan followed by an interview with Superintendent Jason Kamras where we talk about all things RPS in 30 minutes.

On this week's Municipal Mania, we sit down with 2nd District Councilwoman Kim Gray. Due to snow, we had to reschedule with 2nd District RPS Board member Scott Barlow. So, instead, you will hear a selection of speeches from the December 8, 2018 March for More.

On December 8, 2018 people gathered at Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School to demand the General Assembly fulfill its constitutional obligation and fully fund the true cost of education. Before leaving MLK Jr Middle, various politicians, teachers, and students gave speeches to get the crowd rallied up. Ultimately the march ended at the Virginia State Capitol where more people gave speeches. In addition to demanding more funding for schools from the General Assembly, some attendees came with the message of funding schools over building a coliseum.

Here you can listen to speeches from the beginning and end of the march.

Audio is from the November 16, 2018 information session regarding the Navy Hill Development proposal hosted by NH District. Audio files are in order from the meeting and are named based on content. I can't stress enough how big of a shout out needs to go to Whitney Whiting for this labor of love.
