My thoughts turn to the lower income single mother who has to work two jobs to make ends meet. Meanwhile, her kid(s) are home alone, probably not engaged in on line school. Oh, and, by the way, the kids had virtually no chance of getting dangerously sick from Covid. So, in the end, this was mostly driven by the selfish interests of Weingarten and her union leaders (not the teachers, for the most part). She, Fauci, Collins, and Birks should be put in the public stockade. I honestly don’t blame Trump. I don’t know what he was supposed to do other than to trust the career “experts”. Imagine if he’d overruled them, and thus was actually the threat to all that it could have been.
THANK YOU JENNIFER.... and I do blame trump and biden.... trump lifted the ban on gain of function that obama had put in place.... check it out... VOTE KENNEDY 2024
PROTOCOLS OF THE MEETINGS OF THE LEARNED ELDERS OF ZION . . . Protocol X – Preparing for Power . . . (((SARS-CoV2)))
❝. . . utterly exhaust humanity with dissention, hatred, struggle, envy and even by the use of torture, by starvation, by the inoculation of diseases. by want, so that the “Goyim” see no other issue than to take refuge in our complete sovereignty in money and in all else.❞
Thank you for doing what teacher’s unions should have done: amplify k-12 children’s voices. Their mental and social health. I signed the Balfour Declaration when rational policy discussion seemed to be possible. Boy was I wrong. Good luck finishing it. I can’t wait to see the final film.
Our society never should have turned to the unions, their bosses, nor members to be the experts on students and student needs. AFT, NEA, and their locals all do what unions are designed to do: advocate strongly for the "interests" of their adult, due paying members. They aren't paid to seek the best interests of students. For society to believe they do is illogical.
Policy makers, the Department of Education, state departments of instructions, local school boards, and local school systems all should have told the unions what science was telling us as early as Spring, 2020. Students were low risk. Government at all levels should have put the needs of students 1st and opened schools.
You are certainly right that incentives are not aligned to consider children’s needs...like vaccine nonefficacy for those young age groups, lockdown mental health, education infrastructure and learning delays. Tradeoffs were forbidden. It was about their safety and their pay...for months and even years in many states despite contrary evidence like any mask other than an N95 was worthless, children virtually unharmed by covid, etc.
Thank you for your work on speaking truth which is the first step in enacting change. I just donated and I encourage everyone to please do so too. Every bit truly makes a difference!
Good luck with the finishing! I'm also working on a doc with a collaborator and it addresses Covid insanity amongst many other things... hope to finish in the next few months.
Thank you, Jennifer! Please continue to be brave and amplify children's voices! Nothing made sense. I had neighborhood kids in my home trying to learn because I work only part time from home, and their moms were single and working full time. They were great kids, but it was pure chaos. My own 7th grader went from "highly proficient" to "nearly proficient" in reading and math in 18 months time of remote and hybrid learning. He went from all As with an occasional B+ to mostly Cs and Ds. I was highly involved in his academic efforts, but we were afraid he would fail the entire school year. At one point, he even had an F in 7th grade remote PE, even though he exercised every day. It was the most abusive school experience imaginable. I had him repeat a full year of math to get him back on track in that class. In 10th grade, he's finally testing at "highly proficient" in all core subjects again. But not without consistent effort to repair the damage. I shudder to think about students without a support system at home.
Can’t wait to watch this! Thank you for documenting the harms that occurred so that we won’t forget! Unfortunately schools now rely even more on technology to educate which I feel continues to cause more harm and does little to actually educate.
Heartbreaking. I live across the street from an elementary school in L.A. Co. As a "nana" in a divided family of public school teachers & home schoolers - I don't need to say how emotionally brutal it all was and internally still is at times.
So extremely proud of you for committing to taking a "natural and truthful" stand all the way to a documentary. Just wow.
Wow, great work! Hope you have a distribution strategy to get this documentary out there to a very wide audience. Or will it get suppressed by the Media Control Complex?
I was a member of a classified school employee union and I was not asked to vote on any decision regarding closures. We were paid to stay home and do nothing. I decided to retire early and I didn’t received so much as a thank you form letter for my 17 years of service. Never heard from any of my colleagues the entire time I was on lockdown or after retirement. Disgraceful.
