I'd love to hear it. Maybe he might even have some words of advice for the handful of us not drinking the Pallotta/Mulgrew kool aid?

Right now is the time to reorganize teachers unions. Right now is the time for a new teachers union movement, built outside of the current leadership, ideas, brands, and structures. <br /><br />BUT, the membership, for the most part, doesn't care, know anywhere near enough, and isn't willing to do even 1% of whats required. I don't see this changing. Its not about "we just need to rally the troops!" The troops are addled. The troops have been presented with the largest, most blatant threat to their livelihoods one could ever imagine, and alas, they can't be motivated to do shit or even inform themselves. The troops, as such, do not exist. <br /><br />SO, our unions are about to become brands with no message or political weight. Our last real line of defense, well....its gone. Now all thats left is the raping and pillaging of our careers. Sit back and watch the show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
