In response to budget cuts to California schools and universities educators and students are striking all over California today to show voters and government officials that education is a right they will fight for.

The UC Strike will culminate in a rally at Frank Ogawa Plaza at 3PM today.

Watch Oakland North’s Twitter feed for breaking news and images from strikes around the city.
