Educational Policy

This week, the co-hosts jump into the complicated history and ongoing work of the country’s major teachers unions. The National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers have played an important part in the nation’s political activities, and they’ve given teachers, staff, administrators, and education professionals a platform to negotiate everything from COVID mandates to better pay and smaller class sizes. Dive in to learn about these organizations and how they impact education in America.
