Amy-Gate - Mejia Speech, Winners (Ibeth Mejia) and Losers (Mulgrew and Unity hacks) at UFT Oct. 23 Ex bd
We must stick to the union principles of solidarity, honesty, open democratic discussion, and service to the students of this city. Let our union lead in embracing differences of opinion and mending relationships among our members and the communities we serve. ... Amy Arundell was instrumental in helping us with trying to resolve the issue of micromanagement in our school (Aviation HS). Unfortunately, she is no longer working with us which has left us members feeling; as if we are being let down by our Union. As a result, I am here to remind the Union leadership that the fight for respect, trust, professionalism, and teacher autonomy is raging on, therefore, it is up to the UFT’s leadership to help the members of the rank and file who are feeling the brunt of the abuse in our school, to get the support their need from the UFT... Ibeth Mejia, CL Aviation HS, UFT Ex Bd member at Oct. 23 UFT Ex bd
Mulgrew responded in his president’s report with a monologue I would frankly characterize as despicable. While customarily vague, the president specified in no uncertain terms that he thought supporters of Amy Arundell’s reinstatement were actually doing the work of those who want to destroy the union – a claim so ridiculous and divisive that it led to audible gasps... Nick's Notes
Aviation HS teachers organize:
Thursday, October 26, 2023
I'm
heading down to DC tomorrow for the NPE conference where we will see
heavyweights in the battle for public ed like Ravitch, Bowman, and even
Randi. And today is the first retiree chapter meeting at 52 at 1PM.
Retiree Advocate will be there. And then I hear Mulgrew will be at a
district meeting in Brooklyn where he can freely attack his critics as
being terrorists. Some protesters may even show up. Not me - I'm going
to stay in Manhattan and eat me some rice pudding.
If you missed my previous story on AmyGate:
There
was much ado about something at Monday's Executive Board UFT meeting,
loaded with issues that bear further examination, which I will attempt
in upcoming blog posts. Highlights were the Mulgrew speech accusing
internal critics of practically being anti-union right wing terrorists
and LeRoy Barr's attempt to cool the waters with a heartfelt speech. But
I would ask LeRoy if he wants more unity (we know he wants more UNITY)
give the other views in the UFT some space at the Delegate Assembly as a
start. Ironically, it is Unity and the other views who show the most
consistent interest in the union and we have that in common. Give them
some space.
Nick has the NAC on the meeting with detailed notes and analysis, a must read.
Aviation HS CL and UFC Ex Bd member Ibeth Mejia was a star at with a dynamic speech she gave under the district reports section of the meeting. After Mulgrew's diatribe, she gently asked him to stay for the district reports but he said he had another meeting, only to be seen scurrying out of the alley next to 52 by Arthur and Jonathan. I was joking about what Randi would have done in the same situation. She would have stopped to chat for 20 minutes and maybe take them to coffee. That's her political skills. Looking forward to seeing her this weekend.
