In this segment of By Any Means Necessary hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Karla Reyes, a New York City schoolteacher and union activist in the United Federation of Teachers, to talk about yesterday's Teacher's Day of Resistance, why the "scattershot" state-by-state approach to school closure is emblematic of the broader drive to 'reopen' the economy, and how educators are fighting back against threats to their own health and that of their students.
