Just thinking to myself
It would be so much easier if @NYCSchools just called full remote. They're gonna go full remote anyway at some point
My teacher friends in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Chicago, their teachers unions and communities fought back and won
@UFT get it together
So damn tired and demoralized
I was talking to a former @NYCSchools teacher who resigned last week
She left because she didn't want to be part of an institution criminalizing students anymore
And we're going to be traumatizing them further if we go back into school buildings
Why do educators have to fight for our safety
Why do principals have to fight for our safety
Why do students have to fight for our safety
Why do families have to fight for our safety
Why can't we just be safe
@NYCMayor @NYGovCuomo
We keep us safe
#OnlyWhenItsSafe
#WeWontDieforDOE
There is no reason why we're all spending our summers fighting for our safety
There's no reason why I had to be quoted in @NYMag and @Gothamist and @Marketplace and @newrepublic and @ChalkbeatNY and why educators have to speak to @NYDailyNews and @nypost to fight for our lives
Can you tell we're tired?
Of the lack of information?
Of the lack of transparency from @NYCMayor @NYCSchools @NYGovCuomo @UFT?
Of being told we're part of an experiment to risk our lives?
Of being told we should martyr ourselves?
For what?
#OnlyWhenItsSafe
#WeWontDieforDOE
I'm so tired of this.
Just cried: I'm so overwhelmed. I'm glad my thoughts are in this @newrepublic article so when ppl ask, "Hey Annie, what do you think about @NYCSchools reopening?" I can shove this article in their face and say, 'Here: read. We have a month to stop this.'" newrepublic.com/article/158799…
