How Far to the Left is the National Teachers Union?

We have to ask ourselves: how far to the left has the national Teachers Union lurched?

“In 2014, the National Education Association gave its Friend of Education award to 15-year old Malala Yousafzai, who was shot by the Taliban because she wanted girls to be able to go to school.

“In 2020, the National Education Association gave its Friend of Education award to 17-year old Greta Thunberg, who achieved global fame because she stopped going to school.”

Greta’s quote: “I have my books here. But also I am thinking:  what am I missing?  What am I going to learn in school?  Facts don’t matter any more, politicians aren’t listening to the scientists, so why should I learn?”
