From Robert Reich a great tribute to a teacher. A video (3 minutes) that points out what the radical right is doing to our schools.

The radical right Republicans have been using teachers as one of their go-to whipping boys for decades. Iowa even has a governor doing all she can to destroy our public school system. Right wing school boards are banning books and pre-censoring teachers in an effort to propagandize kids.

Deidre DeJear and Democratic legislators will return Iowa’s schools to what they should be. Remember that when you vote this year.

Disservice to the children and the teachers who teach them will really hurt us in the long run.
