NEA keynote shows how teachers unions pushing US education leftward | Eastern NC Now

Teachers unions are pulling American education to the far left.  Here in North Carolina we have our own state teachers union, the NCAE using a symbol of a raised clinched fist, similar to a common communist political symbol.  But what really took the cake was the keynote address at the convention of the National Education Association (NEA), the largest national teachers union.  NEA President Becky Pringle finished the speech in a style reminescent of Hitler at Nuremburg with the waving arms and other mannerisms, but her content was also eye opening, like her pledge to "reclaim public education as a common good and transform it into something it was never designed to be: racially and socially just and equitable".   "Social justice" and "equity" are buzzwords of the extreme left.  Pringle's Hitler-inspired speech can be watched on the link below.

This raises the question in Beaufort County of whether when panels of teachers are put together on things like curriculum, do they include teachers from radical far-left teachers unions like the NEA or NCAE?  That may explain some of the wokeness seeping through in recommendations.
