Why Unions for teachers?
This post supports a larger Teacher Blog Action Day on Why teachers like us (good ones) support unions
My support for my union is based on many experiences; my own experiences teaching, my experiences at other jobs in other professions, the working experience of relatives. Most especially, it’s those experiences as women in the workplace that really showed me the need for a union.
First, the history of teachers unions is wrapped in the history of women in the workplace and labor movement.
