In case you missed the YouTube LIVE with HISD Union leader Michelle Williams, here's the audio for you. In this  episode of Ridgemont4'sfinest-The Podcast, we are discussing the controversial case of Michelle Williams, a dedicated teacher and union leader within the Houston Independent School District (HISD). Just days after being removed from her teaching position, Williams finds herself at the center of a storm, facing termination and alleging retaliation from district authorities.

We unravel all of the craziness with Ms. Williams and her story. From her impassioned critique of HISD's decision to extend the school year to the accusations of misconduct surrounding her social media activity, every aspect of this case raises critical questions about free speech, workplace policies, and the power dynamics within the education system.

As we navigate through Williams' account of events and the responses from HISD, listeners will be drawn into a gripping narrative that exposes the tensions between educators and administrators. What role does dissent play in shaping educational policies, and where should the line be drawn between advocacy and insubordination?

Tune in  as we engage Michelle Williams in a  conversation about her fight for justice and the future of teaching in HISD schools.
