Educators have…

Saving our democracy
I was catching up on some reading this week, with the TV on in the background, when I heard the journalist A.B. Stoddard warn, “We might have had our last free and fair election.” I stiffened, because I knew she was exactly right and she was sounding an alarm. A fire is sweeping the country,…

LISTEN: 2NJB Podcast — The Guy Who Wrote Israel’s Iconic Gay Movies
Last February, Gal Uchovsky said something provocative. So far, that’s not really news – since Uchovsky, who’s a very well known publicist, filmmaker and gay-rights-advocate, is also very well known for his eccentricity, his though provoking columns and television appearances.

LISTEN: 2NJB Podcast — Operation Guardian of the Walls: What Really Happened?

Back to School for All: Return, Recover and Reimagine
Schools must open this fall. In person. Five days a week. With the space and health safeguards to do so. And my union, the American Federation of Teachers, is committed to making it happen.

LISTEN: 2NJB Podcast — Highs and Lows of a Startup King

Creating the freedom to thrive
America’s once-thriving middle class did not appear out of thin air. Federal economic policy helped seed it: New Deal programs, the GI Bill and the National Labor Relations Act’s enabling of union organizing all created conditions for shared prosperity and upward mobility—not for all Americans, to be sure, but for many.
