My guest tonight! A 17-year-old High School junior was suspended Wednesday after Rep. Mark Amodei’s office complained to administration about a call the student had made to his office. Noah C. had never had so much as a detention before, is a model student, and a major player on his school’s debate team. Noah and dozens of his classmates called their representatives during Wednesday’s nationwide school walkouts over gun violence. He had just been elected class secretary/treasurer but will not be able to serve in that role due to this unconstitutional suspension.

Noah and the Nevada ACLU’s policy leader, Holly Wellborn, join us and tell the whole story of protest, free speech and oppression.  Brody Levesque and Karen Ocamb join as our journalist panel.
