I believe in and support labor unions, but things have gotten pretty crazy at CCSF!
The only ones who will speak to the mainstream press do not share the AFT 2121's views. I admire them for having the courage to speak out on the verbal abuse Maria Salazar-Colon spewed to Abigail Bornstein, who as far as I've ever witnessed, has always expressed her unpopular opinions with courage and civility. (Of course, people who don't share her views perceive what she says as bullying and show contempt for her, obviously regretting that "nevertheless, she persists."
I remember an earlier BOT meeting when Maria Salazar-Colon spoke angrily and threateningly at some group of people (COPE?), and I asked about her. I was told that she was "that way," not a very nice person but not certifiably insane. I'm also shocked that she's still the president of the CCSF chapter of SEIU! I'm also appalled that when she was spewing venom at Abigail Bornstein, she wasn't stopped. If she's mentally ill, that's unfortunate. But of course, the trustees have a responsibility to prevent verbal abuse and f-bombs. I worked to elect Anita Martinez, who's now president of the Board of Trustees. I like and respect her, but I don't like or respect her letting this verbal abuse continue.
