Quote of the Day - teaching unionism


From EAGnews.org comes little gem courtesy of Milwaukee Teachers Education Association President Bob Peterson:

“If teacher unions want to be strong and well supported, it is essential that they not only be teacher unionists, but teachers of unionism. We need to create a generation of students who support teachers and the movement for workers rights, oppressed peoples’ rights. That’s our responsibility.”

And they say there's no indoctrination in public schools.

Teachers should be outraged at being co-opted by their union to be a political tool rather than the instructors and educators they desire to be.

Will the teachers who dropped out of the unions in Wisconsin teach "unionism"? I have a feeling they won't listen to that union tool.
