** Economic Democracy Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------
This week’s Economic Democracy newsletter teaches us how to create a better country for working families and their children. First, an article revisits the lessons of the 2012 Chicago Teacher’s Union strike, where a strong coalition fought for the Chicago that students and teachers deserved. Next, how a local school district addressed the disparities in Kansas City caused by corporate subsidies. Then, we study the keys to designing sustainable childcare businesses through lessons from a childcare incubator in Maine. Finally, a piece from our “Green New Deal on the Ground” series features the teachers in Los Angeles who took on issues including housing segregation, mental health services, and sustainable transportation to protect their school systems from the climate crisis.
