Randi Weingarten: “Won’t Back Down” is a “false and misleading depiction of teachers and unions”


Diane Ravitch provides the full text of Randi Weingarten’s response to “Won’t Back Down,” the hollywood film that Walden Media is releasing in September.  The purpose of the movie seems to be not only to demonize teachers, but to direct everyone to vote for the parent trigger laws in November so we can hasten the privatization of public education.  Randi Weingarten responds with scathing criticism of the movie on Diane Ravitch’s blog.

The silly picture is from another website I learned about through Ravitch’s blog, Last Stand for Children.
