The recently agreed-to Minneapolis Federation of Teachers (MFT) Union Contract includes a provision that protects employment-based race. If a job needs to be eliminated, you’ll get fired instead of someone else if you look a certain way.
The union’s agreement ignores seniority in favor of skin color, and you’ve probably guessed which color.
“Starting with the Spring 2023 Budget Tie-Out Cycle, if excessing a teacher who is a member of a population underrepresented among licensed teachers in the site, the District shall excess the next least senior teacher, who is not a member of an underrepresented population,” the agreement reads.
According to the United Federation of Teachers, “excessing” means “reducing staff in a particular school when there is a reduction in the number of available positions in a title or license area in that school.”
So, as student enrollment declines (excess abortions, teen suicide, vaccine or gang murder, parents taking their kids out of the BS public school or moving away), someone has got to get transferred or fired, and the least senior white teacher goes first.
And it may not sound like it, but I’m okay with this.
If white liberal teachers accepted a contract that includes discrimination in exchange for whatever compensation package was agreed upon, live with it. You chose to stay in a tenured system which is by design discriminatory, so this shouldn’t bother you one bit.
You can always pack up your big dream bags and hit the road.
Rumor has it there’s always a teacher shortage somewhere, or if you’d like to try a new career, the Minneapolis Police Department is still severely understaffed. It could be an opportunity to discover what fine citizens the Minneapolis School system has been pumping out in recent years.
You could get one of those therapist/counselor jobs the BLM/Dems have been on about for years. High-Crime low tolerance for law-enforcement neighborhoods are just waiting for your skinny white-ass to show up and counsel them during their drunken or crack-addled domestic dispute. You, a clipboard, and that practiced classroom stare.
Living the progressive dream!
Unless you have a fat ass, then ignore the skinny comment.
