Public Relations During Strike


We examine the public relations and conflict communication between the Chicago Teachers Union and the Chicago Public Schools during the strike on Chicago Tonight at 7:00 pm.

On September 14, the Chicago Teachers Union's House of Delegates did not vote to end the strike. That same day, CTU released a video called, “The Black & White Truth,” featuring parents, students and teachers all discussing the need for greater neighborhood school resources. Watch it below.
