I was junior staffer on the team when Chicago Teachers Union ran the “district our students deserve” campaign to oppose austerity in the city. Kicked Rahm ass for months. #RedforEd now national program. Mayor Johnson raised in CTU. If only Karen Lewis were still with us

austerity increases "both electoral abstention and votes for non-mainstream parties...new, small and radical parties benefit most from austerity policies...effects of austerity on polarization are particularly pronounced when the mainstream right and left parties both stand for fiscal restraint"

I have been explaining and including my child in this since kindergarten. If a teacher is having difficulty explaining RedforEd to a child … I have different concerns about their capacity in this role (also it’s clearly ministry B.S.)

Today I’m wearing #RedforEd in solidarity with education workers!

We need to stand with our education workers and demand better from our Ontario government.

The Ontario NDP stands with education workers ❤️💜

Happy to wear my #RedforEd today, not so happy about the parent who didn’t like being told they had to wait to leave the parking lot, almost hit me, and drove the wrong way out rather than wait five minutes for pick up to end 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

If you see someone at your child’s school wearing red (#ETFO) or purple (#CUPE) today it’s because they care about public education and how this govt’s intentional underfunding is affecting students.

P.S. We’ve been working without a contract since August 31.

It will be different in each local, but best guess is everyone wears #RedForEd shirts or buttons, and possibly an info picket at some schools before or after school with info for families about what’s happening with the government, issues in education, etc.

Think about how much more enjoyable school can be if they were provided with the resources and supplies that the students and teachers need. Teachers shouldn’t have to buy these things themselves to give the students a safe, creative, and positive learning environment! #RedforED #SPCH145advocates
