Chicago Teachers Union President Stacy Davis Gates continues to defend the "hypocritical" decision to send her kids to the exclusive De La Salle Institute despite her opposition to school choice and claims that private schools are "segregation academies …created to avoid integrating schools with Black children."
In a scathing critique of the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU), school choice activist Corey DeAngelis called the union a "total clown show" for its contradictory actions and failure to prioritize the needs of students. DeAngelis pointed out various instances where the CTU's actions seemed to contradict their statements.
