Editor's Note -- Marc Tafolla-Young, of the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights (San Francisco), is one of two lawyers that scour the state helping local individuals and groups fix schools using the landmark Williams v.s.

YO!TV looked at how the process happened in elementary schools in Oakland and Richmond. Min Lee is an editor at YO! Youth Outlook Multimedia.
