On Sunday, KQED published a story about the leader of the Berkeley Federation of Teachers sending his toddler to a private, in-person preschool while at the same time advocating that Berkeley public schools should only reopen to in-person learning when teachers are vaccinated, among other criteria.
The story was prompted by a group of anonymous activist parents who filmed the BFT head taking his toddler to school, and posted the video on Twitter. The group posted a statement online saying, “the only thing keeping our schools closed is cowardice — and union donations to politicians,” and it promised to “out” the men “responsible.”
