That same day, village children marched with placards reading \u201cWe Want Our Teachers Back\u201d and \u201cJustice We Want,\u201d following a banner bearing a single word: \u201cJustice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the seventy\u2011two pupils, sixty\u2011six walked out, launching a boycott of the local authority school that lasted twenty\u2011five years. As the strike entered its second year, a national fundraising effort financed the construction of a new school. The Burston Strike School still stands today, a testament to working\u2011class education and the fight against rural injustice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":22385,"template":"","format":[59],"meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"book-author":[942],"blockchain":[4],"book-genre":[],"narrator":[],"book-publisher":[943],"series":[],"class_list":["post-22384","book-dea","type-book-dea","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","book-author-shaun-jeffery","blockchain-cardano","format-ebook","book-publisher-higdon-press"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.8 -
