Black Teachers Quotes

Text Quotes
Unionized teachers have destroyed much of the state school system  (Black Teachers Quotes) Because I was aspirational, I did my work, I was respectful to my teachers, I experienced a lot of bullying from the black kids.

Why? Because what is good for teachers’ unions is of more importance to the Left than what is good for blacks. Who, then, is racist? By their own admission, and by the policies they pursue, the answer is the people who call themselves progressive.  (Black Teachers Quotes) We need more male black teachers, tempting them with extra cash if necessary  (Black Teachers Quotes) My parents are the last of the middle class. My father worked for the government designing sea mines. My mother was a substitute teacher. Together, they worked really only until they were sixty  (Black Teachers Quotes)
