RADICAL TEACHERS' UNIONS:
IT IS NOT ABOUT THE CHILDREN
While our cities are being ransacked, local economies are struggling, and families are trying to return to a normal life, teachers' unions are exploiting the coronavirus fears and social unrest to advance their radical ideology. Schools have resisted opening. Teachers have worried on Twitter about parents' being able to see what they are teaching in their online classrooms. In one school district, teachers staged a "sick out" on opening day to protest having to go to work, forcing classes to be cancelled that day. It is time to ask an important question: "Is this really about the children and their wellbeing?"

Be afraid, but not for the reason you might think.

The public angst over whether schools should open back up and whether teachers should "put their lives at risk" has created unnecessary fear for teachers, students, and parents. A more urgent alarm for all of us should be that there is an intentional effort on the part of some teachers and school districts to hide what they are teaching in their classrooms. With so much emphasis now on students' personal and political lives, especially their sexuality and activism, teachers assure them that their conversations are "confidential" and "private," and their classrooms are "safe spaces" where they can share very personal matters. Their parents "don't have to know" because parents are often viewed as problems to overcome. Not all teachers feel this way, of course, but the national teachers' unions have promoted these ideas for years.

There is a dilemma in American education. On the one hand, teachers are essential to student achievement. On the other, teachers unions promote self-interests of their members which are antithetical to the interests of students. So, how do we fix this problem? In five minutes, Terry Moe, Professor of Political Science at Stanford University, delineates this quandary and offers solutions.

HISTORY OF TEACHERS' UNIONS

And, if you are looking for books to further explain the history of teachers' unions, we found a few older resources to consider:

Samuel Blumenthal explains in detail how the NEA was created, what its goals are, and what it stands for. Here's a little hint for you: its NOT about educating our children. The NEA has been since its inception, and continues to be today, a vehicle for Socialist indoctrination of our youth.

In this startling expose, Myron Lieberman shows how the teachers' unions raise and spend vast sums to maintain their power over education and to push a narrow political agenda. Even dues-paying teachers will be angered to learn how their unions stifle dissent, sabotage meaningful reform, and hold parents hostage to bureaucracy.
