Sign Letter: Support Boston Teachers

5/23/2022

Dear FSU Members,

As part of the campaign against state takeover of the Boston Public Schools, the Boston Teachers Union is inviting academics, professors and researchers to sign on to the following letter opposing state receivership, or state receivership by any other name. The letter was drafted in collaboration with Professor Domingo Morel, author of Takeover: Race, Education, and American Democracy.

Professors and researchers interested in signing on should email Lisa Guisbond at (contact FSU or Steve Striffler for her email information) with their name, academic field and institutional affiliation. We will note that affiliations are for identification purposes only. Please respond by Monday afternoon, May 23, so we can present the letter to the MA BESE on Tuesday, May 24. 

(contact FSU or Steve Striffler for the text of the letter).

From the FSU
