Be aware! This is NOT satire! I am going to post parts of an actual article from the May 2nd official newspaper of the largest teacher's union local in the nation, the United Federation of Teacher's newspaper, "New York Teacher."
Really.
If you continue reading, you will be exposed to the nexus of Liberalism, unionism, racism, and anti-education.
1. "UFT: Resources needed to prevent student suspensions
2. Too many New York City public school students are suspended or arrested, UFT Director of School Kazansky.... called on the Department of Education to move beyond its narrow emphasis on testing and instead put more resources into peer-mediation and crisis-intervention programs and the hiring of more mental health professionals for the schools.
3. Joining Kazansky were high school students from the group Dignity in Schools, education activists from New Yorkers for Great Public Schools and a host of political leaders, including two Democratic candidates for mayor, City Comptroller John Liu and former Comptroller William Thompson, as well as representatives of other Democratic mayoral candidates.
4. ... called for the next mayor to end zero-tolerance discipline policies that disproportionately affect students of color.
5. A lot of black and Latino students are pushed out of school and into the school-to-prison pipeline, ...
6. Student suspensions, if necessary at all, should be a last resort ...He called for a broader adoption by schools of a restorative justice approach now used at only 10 schools. It gives students ownership of their behavior and makes them responsible for doing something to make it right.
7. Ultimately, students would be better served with less emphasis on discipline and more on prevention and intervention, he said.
8. .... launch of a new UFT initiative, Safety in Numbers. It will call on educators to report all disciplinary incidents and will provide a training module for staff to change a schools culture."

So....let's review, shall we?
According to the most powerful education labor union, one that elects leaders in the biggest and most influential city in the nation, it is not an emphasis on teaching that we need enforce.....it is to make certain that there is less discipline..." students would be better served with less emphasis on discipline..."????
Their goal and desire is to keep felons and felons-in-training in the schools? Get these idiots out! That's the teachers to whom I'm referring!!!
The implication is that the most Liberal professionals in the nation....nay, nay....in the world...are singling out " A lot of black and Latino students..."????
And, these angels....the ones 'suspended and arrested,' were picked out at random.....???
What kind of insanity is loose in the world????
Here we see the reason why education is a thing of the past....
Just as in good government, Liberals and education are oil and water.
Throw 'em out!!
