2 Socialists, 1 Union & 0 Strikes
This is Part II of our discussion with our guest Socialist, Greg. Greg and our Andy are comrades in the same teachers union, UESF (United Educators of San Francisco) and at the same school, Mission High. In this episode we will turn to their organizing efforts in their union and what perils they have faced and lessons they have learned.
Some clarifications: The proposition that UESF pushed for to tax workers to pay for raises for teachers was Prop. G.
The year that EDU actually took power within some of the top union positions in UESF was 2015.

Concentration Camps, Asylum and "The Squad"
We discuss the latest political fight over immigration in US politics and highlight a very under-reported outcome of it all related to changes in asylum for immigrants coming from Central America.
Also, Andy's statement on prisons about majority in jail for non-violent crimes is only true for Federal Prison, not State Prisons. There 55% are accused of committing a violent crime.
Apologies in advance for the ‘clicking’ you will hear near the end of the episode.
