Detroit is in turmoil, as reform arrives. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of teachers don’t know if they have a job.
The reform plan closed a bunch of schools and opened another bunch of schools.
That’s reform.
Open some, close some, see if it works, start over.
Sort of like an old game called 52 Pick-up, where you throw all the cards in the air and see where they land.

Appalling.

It is appalling and horrific. I guess the union has been gutted and made irrelevant because no mention is made of a union fighting for teacher so called rights. Teachers have been reduced to Walmartized indentured servants, if they are lucky.

I ‘m a Detroit Public Schools teacher, and yes we’re catching hell fight now. Our union , DFT is fighting hard against a Republican controlled legislation, a Republican governor and a Republican controlled supreme court and a local Emergency Financial Manager .
