Important and very well done piece!

This is such a timely and important piece. When we covered the Laurence King story on the LIVE show I produce at KPCC, we screened a lot of calls from teachers really struggling with these issues. I hope those teachers and their students have a chance to hear this piece. The kids' performances are remarkable and the interviews are extremely powerful. I hope it gets lots of play here and nationally. Very well done.
