A local news outlet in Minneapolis uncovered rare archival footage showing a young Prince joining the picket line of a teacher's strike, and social media can't get enough.
On Monday, CBS 4 News in Minnesota shared the fruits of its investigation online –– a clip from 1970 showing the then 11-year-old Prince Rogers Nelson giving an interview in front of his junior high school. According to Rolling Stone, the clip surfaced as part of the news outlet's search to give historical context to the teachers strike that began last month. Teachers in the same district went on strike some 52 years ago, demanding better pay –– and a young Prince clearly agreed.
