The Colorado teachers union confirmed adopting an anti-capitalist polemic at its 97th Annual Delegate Assembly. The Colorado Education Association, which represents more than 39,000 K-12 teachers, support professionals and higher education staffers, held its assembly in April and passed this resolution:
"The CEA believes that capitalism inherently exploits children, public schools, land, labor, and resources. Capitalism is in opposition to fully addressing systemic racism (the school to prison pipeline), climate change, patriarchy (gender and LGBTQ disparities), education inequality, and income inequality."
Bryan Lindstrom, a history teacher in Aurora who ran for city council in 2021, authored the resolution.
