William Ayers a keynote speaker next month at the Association of Teacher Educators conference
Washington Examiner ^ | January 17, 2013 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 01/18/2013 3:13:57 PM PST by george76

The Association of Teacher Educators has recruited Chicago professor – and former domestic terrorist – William Ayers to speak at their the 2013 Annual Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia which will be held next month.

William Ayers, a co-founder of the radical Weather Underground domestic terror group, was a key figure during the 2008 presidential campaign due to his Chicago ties to then-Senator Obama.

...

no specific mention of Ayers’ controversial background, describing him as the “formerly Distinguished Professor of Education and Senior University Scholar at the University of Illinois at Chicago.”

The online biography also lists several of Ayers’ books, including Fugitive Days, which chronicles his activities as a radical domestic terrorist in the ’60s.

Billy, billy , billy!

Get up on that podium and relate your fascist diatribe as much as possible.

Sooner or later poetic justice will run its course.

People like Ayers who seek to reshape society, in part by indoctrinating children, are a significant threat to our children’s future, but we won’t hear the pundits talking about that.

Shows you what has become of "Education" in the US. The Association of Teacher Educators , chose the unrepentant Commie terrorist, Barack Obama mentor, head of multiple "educational" non-profits and professor of "education" specifically to deliver the same message he's been delivering to Commie and Commie front groups for years.

Ayers speaking at a Hugo Chaves "Education Forum" in Venezuela:
"We share the belief that education is the motor-force of revolution..."

This and more he's openly posted online for years: Ayer's Blog

That’s disgusting! Unfortunately, sociopaths with no conscience often wind up in positions of power. They are driven to that by their narcissism, and aided by their lack of true ethics and compassion. We need much better safeguards in society against people like this. Academia tends to be a haven for them.

Here’s one of the comments :

whatthebeepny • a year ago

It is disturbing to put the pieces together between Bill Ayers and Obama. Obama’s Harvard Law School education funding is linked to Ayers. In 1987 Bill Ayers solicited Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour-a.k.a.Donald Warden-to raise money for Obama’s Harvard education.Mansour is an orthodox Muslim, a black nationalist, an outspoken enemy of Israel, and mentor to Black Panther Party founder Huey Newton and his cohort, Bobby Seale. At the time Mansour associate Percy Sutton was raising money for Obama’s education, Mansour was the top financial advisor to mega-billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal of the Saudi royal family. See also http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

FBI agent , Larry Grathwhal reports from inside Weather Underground Org. In a meeting with 25 WUO members, they planned education camps to reeducate an estimated 25 million people; if the people couldn’t be reeducated, ie they remained die-hard capitalists, they said they would have to be eliminated, killed. “They were figuring out the logistics of eliminating 25 million people, and they were dead serious.” —1982 documentary, “Nowhere to Hide.”

Well, there are real educators, and then there are government school teachers.

The New York Times would be harder on a Republican jay walker than on a democrat rapist... They have their standards - and that means a 'high level of butt kissing' when it's one of their own.

Just wait until they run Ayers for president. Or maybe Jarrett/Ayers.

Bill Ayers is Obama's Rosetta Stone. I have no doubt Obama befriended Ayers when both were in New York, and that Ayer's, through his father, got Obama his community organizer job in Chicago.

Their relationship is much deeper than any have publicly let on. Their collaboration on "Dreams from my Father" is in indicative of this.

Thanks for posting this. This man is an unrepentant domestic terrorist, cop-killer, bomber of the Pentagon and rapist. He is one of the keynote speakers at the 2013 Annual meeting of the Association of Teacher Educators, a group of which my late father was a distinguished, long time member, past president and honoree. In his delirium on his death bed, the thing he was most concerned with was that everything was well with ATE, that he had done all he could to ensure their goals and continuity. This was a group our family grew up in, traveling to the annual meetings as our summer vacations. I always liked the people and respected them. I suppose most of the members I knew as a boy have passed on and perhaps that’s for the best because I have a hard time imagining they would want Ayers as their speaker. What’s on the egenda next year? Perhaps they could get Jerry Sandusky to lecture on sex education. Here is contact information for ATE: ASSOCIATION OF TEACHER EDUCATORS

“We share the belief that education is the motor-force of revolution...” >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

We share the belief that the 2nd amendment allows ordinary citizens to destroy those who would destroy the US Constitution.

Eff you Ayers!

I sure hope we can get a video or transcript of this.

They'll probably have armed guards at the doors and require to see your school employee photo ID and ban all recording devices.

Bill Ayers has been around since the 60’s. No one has shot him. Anyone with half a brain knows Ayers lives in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago. He's safe.

Ayers has nothing to fear. His enemies are law biding citizens. He knows that... We don't go around shooting people.

Did you know all of the school shooters were democrats - or their parents were democrats ( if too young to vote).

Did you know Chicago gang members came together last year to help elect democrats... and that it's gang member responsible for the child slaughter going on in Chicago?

Did you know most prison inmates are Democrats?

Bill Ayers, the liberal bullies, and criminals are safe - thanks to democrats... It's traditional Americans who are under siege.
