Solidarity and Statewide Action Are What We Need
Since Bay Area Educators United came together in March 2021 the goal of the group has been to encourage greater solidarity, organization, and mobilization between educators across District lines. The educators that formed BAEU believe that so long as the fight is confined to what Locals acting by themselves can wring from their respective Districts we are doomed to a perpetual battle for scraps. This is especially true in Districts that are predominantly working class.
There are two forms of collective action that cross-district solidarity, organizing, and mobilizing can take. The first form of cross-district action aims to strengthen educators in their battles with their respective districts(contract battles, in most cases).
The second form of cross-district action could develop from the first form, or that is our hope. Its aim would be to unite educators, not for demands on our underfunded districts, but on the State of California.
