I had to download the complete resolution to look over it all closer later. Have you read all of the resolutions? I can't see what much of this has to do with education, especially Section I. Most of it looks vile.

Sure is but the resolutions are only part of the story. Myron Lieberman and Charlene K. Haar were NEA members. They went undercover to the 2000 NEA convention and report on the sordid backroom details HERE

The evils of vouchers were by far the preeminent topic throughout the convention. Neither of us heard as much as one sentence that portrayed vouchers as anything but a right-wing scheme to destroy public education, or a snare and a delusion for the unwary. Other than vouchers, internal affairs and national politics, the focus was on racism, discrimination, homophobia, higher federal appropriations, and more teacher benefits and protections.

Go figure. You'd think academics would have been a topic, aye?
