On June 18, 2010, just one week after their election victory in the Chicago Teachers Union, three top officers of the new CTU leadership join Labor Beat's host Wayne Heimbach in a discussion on the meaning of their win and the road ahead to restore union and community power to public education in Chicago. Present were Karen Lewis, President elect; Kristine Mayle, Financial Sec. elect; and Michael Brunson, Recording Sec. elect. The recent election victory of Karen Lewis and her reform slate in the Chicago Teachers Union has significance on a national level. It is a shot across the bow of Secretary of Education Arne Duncan's juggernaut of dismantling and privatizing public education. It is also the dawn of new era of teachers union alliances with school-community and neighborhood organizations in the fight against Mayor Daley's gentrification marauders. Produced by Labor Beat.
