But long term you are right. ChicagoCORE did a lot of work exposing the banks before they got elected. The UFT won't go there because of its ties to the entire power structure.

This alone warrants dragging out the entire leadership of the Unity Caucus from 52 Broadway and throwing them into prison for conspiring with the DOE to upend education in NYC and hurt children. This of course sounds "insane" and any Unity person reading this would use this as an example of just how "crazy" some teachers and activists are today. But we know better. This is the truth.<br /><br />What I would like MORE and all of Labor to do is develop an economic platform that seeks to lock arms with the community in order to fight for a jobs program and Wall Street tax on financial speculation. Only when our students' parents have jobs that pay a fair wage and our students have the opportunity to secure jobs after high school or college, will we see authentic gains in student learning. <br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
