The New Jersey Education Association, a labor union that represents some 200,000 educators in the state, wrapped up its annual convention on Nov. 10-11. But rather than focus on professional development, the organization is being called out for advancing its leftist agenda.
The convention, billed as an event “designed to help teachers and educational support professionals hone their skills and stay current in their subject areas and chosen fields,” featured controversial keynote speakers including gun control activist David Hogg and The New York Times’s Nikole Hannah-Jones, creator of the debunked 1619 Project.
