8 JUN 2022 · This week, Christina Gavin (school librarian, MORE UFT caucus member, and UFC candidate) makes an appearance on the show to tell us her story from the UFTwilight Zone, where the bureaucracy of a union meant to support educator-members sometimes turns on these very educators if they dare to identify the majority caucus's breeches of UFT election policy and national labor law. This is part 1, which sets the stage for the story and establishes how Christina first became known to Unity's higher-ups. Be sure to tune in next week for some pretty serious evidence of Unity deceit and the thrilling conclusion of the story.

If you have not yet mailed in your ballot, remember it must be received by Monday, May 9th at 8am. Consider delivering it in person if you are not confident in the speed of the mail: UFT members may hand-deliver their own ballot in person to the AAA by 5 p.m. on Friday, May 6, as long as they present a photo ID; no one is permitted to deliver anyone else’s ballot.
