I was a hold out on eliminating our public school system till recently when Glenn Beck pointed me in the direction of the "We are one" teacher's toolkit.

Teachers Toolkit (pdf)

It includes this handy student pledge form.

AS A STUDENT who believes in acting collectively and who supports workers’ right to bargain for good jobs and a better life, I am interested in doing one or more of the following (please check all that apply):

I want to connect with the union movement on my campus or in my community.

I want to help organize a teach-in like today’s for others on my campus or on a different campus.

I want to support workers’ organizing and collective bargaining struggles on my campus and in my community.

I want to learn about the AFL-CIO’s Organizing Institute programs. Please e-mail me information.

I would like to become a member of Working America, the community and student affiliate of the AFL-CIO. (www.workingamerica.org)

I would like to talk to someone about becoming an organizer for Working America.


When they start weaponizing the youth of America, the schools are beyond repair.

Watch these YouTubes of James Clavell’s (author of Shogun, Nobel House) short story, The Children’s Story. James Clavell saw the possibility of the re-education of children via the public schools as an issue back in the 1980’s.

Our public school system recently was tossing aroud ideas on how to get the “community” more involved in the schools, and thus, bring in more money and volunteerism. One of the ideas proposed was to install a laundromat in the school. I am not kidding! Makes me view my children’s $6000 private school tuition as an investment, not an expense.
