Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) strike bulletin: Recommended strike chants

Share |

9/10/2012

Strike chants pulled directly from Chicago Teachers Union's strike bulletin issued on Sept. 8, 2012.

What’s outrageous? unpaid wages!
What’s disgusting? Union busting!

Rahm, Brizard, we’re no fools!
We won’t let you ruin our schools!

Rahm, Brizard, we’re no fools!
Corporate cash can’t buy our schools!

Lies and tricks will not divide,
Parents and Teachers side by side!

Everywhere we go
People want to know
Who we are
So we tell them
We are the union
The mighty, mighty union

The war on unions is a joke
Tax the rich that made us broke

How to fix the deficit? [Or: “the school budget”]
Tax, tax, tax the rich!

What do we want?
Stop the Cuts! [stop the layoffs, stop the lies, etc]
When do we want it?
Now!

Teachers’ rights
Under attack
What do we do?
Stand up, fight back!
