CTU Election 5/21
We’re down to the final two days before the Chicago teachers get to choose between business as usual union politics where we throw money at politicians and hope they save us and movement style union politics where we save ourselves. If you have been following my sporadic postings since October you know that I took Howard Zinn’s advice and joined up with a social movement. As a teacher, the thing that was most important to me was education and naturally that’s where I went. I can’t tell you how CORE has impressed me in this time. While the other caucuses seem exactly one person deep–maybe two—CORE has 20 or 30.
