The Teacher Strike Wave
In case you don’t realize just how massive the teacher strike wave has been, 2018 saw the most workers strike in the United States since 1986. Teachers make up a huge percentage of them, as you can see from the graph at the top of the post. And given the L.A. and Denver teacher strikes, expect to see teachers continue to make up a large proportion of striking workers in 2019, hopefully with a total number that bests last year.
