RALLY AT UFT HEADQUARTERS
52 Broadway
FRIDAY OCT. 21 AT 4PM
Sponsored by ICE & TJC
Come on down even if only for a while
There is not much time but if the majority of people in your school are opposed to the contract poll them and ask if they would like to be a sponsor.
Demands:
1. The UFT to present an accurate and fair presentation of facts about the contract and to stop misleading people. Stop the strike mongering.
2. Space in the NY Teacher for the case for a No Vote.
3. The UFT to cease branding opponents of the contract as anti-union
4. Delegate Assemblies to be run in a democratic manner, unlike the recent meeting on the contract.
More details to follow in future updates.
Please tell your colleagues about this rally.
Send a message to Bloomberg and Weingarten to get back to the negotiationing table and bring back a fair contract.
ICE Gathering Post- rally at The World Café, Trinity and Rector “Countering the Unity Spin” Get the real facts so you can successfully inform your colleagues about the real facts. We will clarify contract questions.
Aren't the "facts" you post, YOUR spin?
ReplyDeleteWhat's the matter, too many critical comments in the last post?
ReplyDeleteWell, don't worry, I will stand up for you no matter how many critical comments are made.
You guys are no terrorists.
Terrorists are smarter.
I'll be there to support you! Don't let the fear-mongering UNITY Nazis intimidate you, my fellow educators!
ReplyDeleteThe demonstration was great. A show of real 'unity'. Very impressive.
