Listen Later

Curious why everyone claims to love teachers but hate teachers' unions? In this week's episode, we look into the history of unions, what the Chicago Teacher's Union is asking for to aid themselves and their students during the pandemic, and how the film Stand and Deliver gives us a unique insight into the power dynamics between teachers, parents, and administrators.

We also mentioned an article from NYMag that you can find here: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/01/were-having-the-wrong-conversation-about-school.html
