High School Students Walk Out to Protest Sexual Assault, Harassment
Students say they want to shine a light on a dirty little secret: widespread sexual misconduct on campus, including harassment, groping, and a lack of consequences for the perpetrators, according to a KTVU news report. The perpetrators have been both students and teachers.

Several hundred Oakland Technical High School students walked out of class Wednesday morning, to protest what they consider Oakland Unified School District’s failure to deal with complaints of sexual harassment and assault.
The protesters marched two miles from the school at 4351 Broadway to the district’s headquarters in downtown Oakland at 11th Street and Broadway.
Oakland Tech students also held a protest rally at their school last Friday.
Students say they want to shine a light on a dirty little secret: widespread sexual misconduct on campus, including harassment, groping, and a lack of consequences for the perpetrators, according to a KTVU news report. The perpetrators have been both students and teachers.
“For far too long, OUSD and surrounding districts have perpetuated a culture that has made sexual misconduct seemingly go unpunished,” said student Amara Romero, according to Oaklandside. “It will take deep structural change to actually fix any of this.”
