Teachers are normally laid off or excessed based on seniority alone, but the new agreement adds a racial component as well.

A Minneapolis teachers union contract stipulates that white teachers will be laid off or reassigned before “educators of color” in the event Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) needs to reduce staff.

After the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers (MFT) and MPS struck a deal on March 25 to end a 14-day teacher strike, the two sides drew up and ratified a new collective bargaining agreement complete with various proposals.

One of the proposals dealt with “educators of color protections.” The agreement states that if a non-white teacher is subject to excess, MPS must excess a white teacher with the “next least” seniority.

“Starting with the Spring 2023 Budget Tie-Out Cycle, if excessing a teacher who is a member of a population underrepresented among licensed teachers in the site, the District shall excess the next least senior teacher, who is not a member of an underrepresented population,” the agreement reads.

This violates the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

So much for unions representing their members
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

The White teachers ought to stop paying their dues since they are not represented..

It may take years of courtroom wrangling, but illegal clauses in contracts are legally unenforceable. Schools that go along with this illegal clause will, in the long run, enrich lawyers and the schools' targets.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

No.
Any white teachers
in the Minneapolis school system who know what's in their best interests, ought to be looking for employment elsewhere.

I'm gonna say something pretty unpopular, but what else is new?

The vast majority of teachers (as voters) and their unions voted for this...so not an iota of sympathy from me.  Hoist by their own petard.

For those rational ones in MSP, GET OUT of there!

No offense to any TBR member who might still live there, but I'd GTH, and let these lowlifes turn MSP into Detroit.

Then like Detroit, let them drown in their own squalor.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

As a White, male, Conservative, Catholic, Public School Teacher, (How else can I piss anyone off) I agree 100%. Little Somalia is a hellhole adn the remaining residents should be left to die in their own squalor. They were among the first pushing to defund the police. They made their beds let them die in it.

Yes ... and  millions of brown ILLEGALS pouring over our southern border into our country will all be happy to assist.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

If there’s a stupid idea regarding education, chances are its genesis is in Minnesota.  *****rollingeyes*****
Can someone just move this state to the west coast? It gives us Midwesterners a bad reputation.

We have enough idiots out here as it is, if you take from Lost Angels all the way up the coast to Canuckistan so we sure don't need extras from Crapistan. The only thing about this story that surprises me is that it didn't originate in Seattle or Portland.

I am still amazed that the state that gave us a statesman like Hubert H. Humphry. ended up giving us Jesse (the body) Ventura, Al Franken, and Ilhan Omar. They must have put something in the water.
