Due to the steadily rising number of inmates in the Brooklyn and Staten Island rubber rooms the DOE has had to open a new holding cell for teachers. The new cell is a dark dingy basement without windows and has a strict warden who escorts the teachers to the bathrooms. These teachers are being treated worse than prisoners in a holding cell. These teachers have been denied their rights under due process of the law and have been offered to the DOE as human sacrifices. This could be you at any given moment. Teachers need to join together to fight the unfair publicity all teachers and especially rubber room teacher are receiving. Our union allowed a bill board to be posted that slanders teachers. Our union has remained silent regarding these bill boards. Teachers speak out. Do not go silently into the night. Fight for your rights. Let your voices be heard.
