Teacher Strikes Boost Fight for Racial Justice in Schools
First of all, Andrew and other comrades as well, you need to clip
extraneous text just as you are reminded in every email.
Secondly, I specifically referred to workers getting involved in
political struggles outside their bailiwick. The article above
demonstrates that teachers oppose racism in their schools but I am not
sure this is a sign that a proletarian socialist party is on the
horizon. Teachers in urban public schools surely are confronted by
"segregation, underfunding, and the criminalization of the students they
teach—problems that hit Black and Latino students hardest." To do their
job properly, they have to tackle broader questions to be sure. However,
the indication is that the "vanguard" of the teachers nationwide favor
Bernie Sanders for President, a logical choice given the state of the
class struggle. Making a leap between that and launching a new party
does not necessarily follow.
