| Unashamed Randi posing as a CTU supporter |
Who is that lady on the right trying to get into the picture and pose as a militant? Was Randi embarrassed at all that Chicago union leader Karen Lewis pulled out 10,000 teachers, a third of its force out for a rally when the UFT, with almost 4 times the number of teachers, could never come close to that percentage? Really, how dare Randi wear a CTU shirt?
Watch Chicago TU build for a potential strike incrementally against one of someone Rhambo Emanuel, even more vicious than Bloomberg. This take real preparation and orgaanizing with an aim towards the bigger issue

Why aren't we coming together like this in NY? Teachers are attacked daily with little support from the union. We have become beaten down and too many are desperately trying to hold out for retirement. This is wrong and self-serving. We have lost the heart of what union means.
