What happened when a teacher spoke out?

In this episode of Disunion: The Government Union Report, host David Osborne interviews physical education teacher John Grande.

Mr. Grande has been a teacher for 36 years. After expressing frustration with mandatory diversity training, he was disciplined by his employer. He has now filed a lawsuit arguing his First Amendment rights were violated when he faced disciplinary action for answering a question during the training.

In this episode, we touch on the issues of union leadership, political activism, teachers’ rights, and contract negotiations. So tune in, get informed, and let us know what you think!
