The Shifting Terrain of Grassroots Mobilization and the Future of Education Reform in the United States Rachel K. Brickner Department of Politics Acadia University (Canada)

Objective Develop a framework for understanding movement of pro-public education activists in the US

Outline Background Neoliberal aspects of education The emerging activist movement Framework The future of education reform?

Background “A Nation at Risk” (1983) How to fix failing* schools?

Neoliberal Education Reform A competitive market for schools School as training for market agents – “college and career ready” Influence of moneyed actors Anti-union policies Privatization of public schools?

Understanding Discontent Disproportionate effects on minority students Too much testing Narrowed, inappropriate curricula Weakened democratic oversight/accountability Union/teacher scapegoating The end of public education?

“Towards a New Common School Movement” : Wisconsin Uprising : Protests, campaigning in Michigan 2012: Chicago Teachers’ Union strike : Anti-testing movement : Bad Ass Teachers (BATs) : Social union shift Strategic use of social media

Framework Post-crisis “turning period” Social movements must: – Rethink critical concepts – Engage in new forms of organizing – Go on the offensive – Build on union resources without relying on unions exclusively

Rethinking Concepts “The Schools Our Children Deserve” – Identifies essential components of rich education – Demands this for all children – Shifts discourse from “my” to “our” – Shifts discourse from career readiness Chicago, Portland (OR), St. Paul (MN)

New Forms of Organization Social movement unionism But, unions can’t do it all – Inappropriate actions for unions – Distrust of unions – Not all teachers are unionized Importance of parent groups Larger social movements

Taking the Offensive Engaging the media – Social media – MSM? Withdrawing organizational support for Democrats

The Future of Education Reform? There’s a turning point, but there are challenges – Rethinking what schools should do – Uniting across urban/suburban (racial) divides – Broadening from municipal level activism

The Shifting Terrain of Grassroots Mobilization and the Future of Education Reform in the United States Rachel K. Brickner Department of Politics Acadia University (Canada)

Objectivo Desarrollar un marco téorico para entender el movimiento de activistas a favor de la educación pública

Esta Presentación El contexto La reforma neoliberal de la educación El nuevo movimiento de activistas a favor de la educación pública El marco téorico Los desafíos del movimiento

El Contexto Histórico “A Nation at Risk” (1983) Cómo arreglar las escuelas que fracansan*?

Aspectos de la education neoliberal Creación del mercado competitivo para las escuelas Preparar los estudiantes como trabajadores, no como los ciudadanos – “college and career ready” Influencia de los actores poderosos y adinerados Policias contra los sindicatos El fin de la educación pública?

Causas del Descontento Los efectos de las reformas sobre los estudiantes pobres, minoritarios Demasiados exámenes Énfasis en matemáticas, la lectura Ausencia de democracia Las policias contra los sindicatos y profesores La privatización de las escuelas públicas

Un Nuevo Movimiento a Favor de la Educación Pública : Protestas, elecciones en Wisconsin : Protestas, elecciones en Michigan 2012: Huelga del Sindicato de los maestros de Chicago : Movimiento contra los exámenes estandarizados : “Bad Ass Teachers” (BATs) : Sindicatos democráticos y activistas Uso estratégico de Facebook, Twitter, blogs…

Marco Teórico Despúes de la crisis de 2008 Hay que los movimientos sociales : – Repensar los conceptos críticos – Participatar en nuevas formas de organización – Ser proactivo – Utilizar los recursos sindicales…y los de otros organizaciones (Paulson et al.)

Repensar los Conceptos “The Schools Our Students Deserve” – Identifica los aspectos importantes de la educación – Demanda una educación rica para todos – De “mis hijos” a “nuestros hijos” – Ed. es mas que preparación para el trabajo Chicago, Portland (OR), St. Paul (MN)

Nuevas Formas de Organización Sindicalismo mas activista y democrática Pero sindicatos son limitados – Hay acciones que no pueden hacer los sindicatos – Hay desconfianza social de los sindicatos – Hay maestros no sindicalizadas Importancia de organizaciones de madres y padres Movimientos sociales mas grandes

Ser Proactivo Twitter, Facebook, Blogs Retirar su appoyo a los Demócratas

Desafíos del Movimiento Repensar el propósito de la educación pública Las divisiones entre las comunidades urbanas, suburbanas Activism al nivel estatal, federal
