LaborFest 2020: Privatization, charters & the Defense Of Public Education

The continued growth of charters, co-locations and privatization threaten the right to an equal education. The privatizers are using the pandemic to massively expand online education and also further eliminate public schools.

The forum will examine the history of charters and privatization and what what teachers, staff, parents and students can do to protect their public schools and public education.

It will also look at how the pandemic is being used by these privatizers to accelerate the destruction of public education and what needs to be done about it.

Soni Lloyd of UTLA and Carlos Taboada of UTR Retired will be present.

This is a free Zoom based event.
