Education podcast, presented by One-Room Education. &nbsp;Join me today as I discuss the creation and growth of the public teachers union and how they evolved into the hyper-politicized behemoths we know today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">In today&#8217;s discussion,&nbsp;we&#8217;ll be covering topics including:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list has-white-color has-text-color\">\n<li>Why the public teacher&#8217;s unions were originally created.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Who created the unions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Similarities the public teacher&#8217;s unions have with other private-sector unions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why this really does affect every aspect of education from pre-k through doctoral candidacy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">In this, the first of a 2 part series, I give you the background of the formation of the public teacher&#8217;s unions and how they were founded with good intentions. &nbsp;I present the similarities and differences between public and private sector unions and why it matters to everyone who holds an interest in the United States education system; which is literally every citizen and resident of the US.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you enjoy this
