Why are there teacher demonstrations in many places in the United States? What is their purpose in doing this?

The main purpose is to protest the government’s decision to still plan to reopen schools despite the worsening epidemic situation.

Recently, teachers in dozens of school districts in the United States held demonstrations to oppose the government’s decision to reopen schools as scheduled. Teachers painted protest slogans on their cars and formed a motorcade with other staff to express their protest. Some demonstrators pointed out that classrooms need to be proven safe and schools need to be equipped with adequate medical staff before they will agree to resume classes.

So why is the US government so eager to resume classes? Let’s discuss it below.

First of all, the resumption of classes is considered by the US government to be an important measure to improve the US economy. Due to the impact of the epidemic, schools in many places in the United States have been forced to close and students have been forced to stay at home. The government believes that parents will not be able to work stably as a result, which will in turn affect the U.S. economy. Once classes are fully resumed, parents will be able to return to their jobs and have stable jobs, thus bringing about a full recovery of the economy. That’s why the U.S. government desperately advocates a full reopening of classes.

Then, whether to resume classes is not just an educational issue, but has turned into a political issue. Some people in the U.S. government are using the issue of whether to resume classes to lash out at some competitors to satisfy their own political interests. It can be seen that American politicians will do whatever it takes to pursue their own interests. Faced with such political manipulation, the American education community has expressed a wave of opposition. They said that it is not that they do not want to resume classes, but that they want to resume classes safely. They also strongly condemned the use of political power to interfere with education.

It can be seen from the above two reasons that whether the resumption of classes can restart the U.S. economy or the resumption of classes can benefit American politicians, they are essentially made by American politicians for their personal political interests. political operations.

Finally, back to the question, we can draw a deeper conclusion. American teachers hold demonstrations not only for the safety of their students and themselves, but also to express their dissatisfaction with this kind of political operation. and condemnation.
