Make Sure Union Meetings Don’t Resemble The Work Meetings You Hate
Too often at school, we educators feel unappreciated and disrespected. In committee and faculty meetings, we share our knowledge and insights only to be ignored.
If we don’t stop to reflect and think critically about these experiences, we may end up adopting the same hierarchical and oppressive practices as the administration, and our union meetings start to resemble the work meetings that we hate.
But your union is yours to shape. You can make your local union meetings a space where members are heard and can make a difference.
