Texas Standard For January 11, 2018
Deal or no deal? As a Friday deadline approaches over Iran and concerns about nuclear weapons, we’ll have a Texas researcher explain what’s at stake. And: Black girls attending Texas schools are nearly seven times as likely to get suspended from school than their white counterparts. One possible factor?

Those stories and more today on the Texas Standard:
