Randi Weingarten blames politicians for turning teachers into 'social justice warriors'
[Washington Examiner] Teachers union leader Randi Weingarten claimed Thursday that it was politicians who have turned teachers into "social justice warriors."Parents and teachers want to focus on what is best for the children, Weingarten said during a town hall with Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, but restrictions on books and answering controversial questions have led to burnout. "Very few teachers thought that they were going into teaching to be social justice warriors," Weingarten said, according to Fox News. "That has been what has created some of the burnout. And that's not parents. That's politicians. Parents just want the best for their kids. And so do the teachers."
