What this pandemic has laid bare is that schools cannot fix problems that are societal, systemic, & endemic. It’s so easy yet so callous to demand “schools must open...for the learning, mental health, nutrition, childcare... so people can go back to work.” Schools are not a
panacea & if you want them to be, fund them that way. Grant educators the respect & professional courtesy to work with & on behalf of the children they have dedicated their lives to. But the learning, they’re falling behind in learning - compared to when & to whom; are you using
data from other global pandemics? But what about urban & rural largely BIPOC? When have these children ever been your priority? Was it when they weren’t food insecure, all had health care, lived in neighborhoods w/decent quality air, or no lead pipes, or when jobs that pay a

#Democrats roundly reject President Trump’s denigration of the free and independent press, which has endangered reporters’ lives, helped fuel conspiracy theories, and deepened distrust between Americans and their government. 3/11 #DemPartyPlatform #FreePress Image

Sanskrit being made one of the optional languages as per the #NEA is opposed by DMK as "Sanskrit Imposition"!

But MK Stalin promised that an ordinance will be brought to make Urdu a compulsory language, if DMK elected to power!

What kind of hypocrisy is this? Image

I'm really surprised Dems haven't held #Klobuchar to account for her well-documented history of "cruelty" toward staff. If a male senator was known to throw things at staff, berate & "dehumanize" them, expect them to pick up his clothes & fold his underwear, would we let it go?
In 2006, Local 2938 urged AFSCME NOT to endorse #Klobuchar for Senate. 2938 represented attorneys & legal professionals who worked under Klobuchar for 7 years, & they felt she was "wholly undeserving of AFSCME's endorsement."
My husband & I are proud #NEA members. We think Democrats ought to take more seriously the charges leveled against #Klobuchar by the local union that represented her employees for 7 years.

Replace "oligarchy" and "authoritarianism" with T-R-U-M-P and people might actually listen.
Cue all the folks who hate Bernie claiming that socialism is bad when at least half their daily lives are *stops to get mail and also remembers I'm on Internet* filled with small s socialism.
#Bernie is his own worst enemy with his incessant buzzwords.
The FACT is, we need Dem Socialism desperately as a modality, but the #GOP has so tainted the word "socialism" that people forget what it really means.

Our MOST socialist prez was #LBJ, who gave us the #VRA, #CRA, #Medicare, #Medicaid, #SNAP, #NEA, ##PBS, #NPR. So...it's doable.

#NEA Hoy da resultados del primer trimestre... los espero con mucho interés... El año 2018 fue espectacular... ¿Será capaz de superarse? Me conformo con que se mantenga en los entornos de 6-8 millones de euros de beneficio anual. Pero todo lo que sea mejorar...será bienvenido. Image
Aunque recordemos que normalmente #NEA tiene cierta estacionalidad con un primer semestre flojo y un segundo semestre fuerte.
#NEA Buenísimos resultados Image
