A conversation with Jerry Springer

SPLC still hasn’t heard back from Superintendent Wilson about our request to reprint the pages but in the age of the internet, censorship is nearly impossible to get away with.

SPLC isn't an organization that backs down easily, and we need your help to keep up the momentum. Check out the coverage, and read our breakdown of the situation. Then, consider standing with us in support of Bigelow High School’s student journalists, and the rights of student journalists everywhere.
