00:00I have yet to see the PPE in my school. Students with IEPs and E&L students are not receiving
00:06their related services.
00:07I have 150 kids that are eager. I've met them for three days. I love my kids this year.
00:16I'm here for being colonized to DOE.
00:22One of them, Eugene Adams, was my co-worker.
00:32These are students who need a whole lot of extra support. We can't only come back to school safely, but
00:38our students are still reporting to school on Monday, to those conditions, to staff members who are traumatized from losing
00:46our co-workers.
00:48The police are likely going to be walking behind us for a second, so you might want to move in.
01:00So I like this one because I can stick my arms to it.
01:03Oh, okay.
01:04Yeah, I don't know.
01:05Yeah.
01:06You are welcome.
01:07You are welcome.
01:08This is Rodney Gates.
01:10It's essential now that we're seen as essential workers, right?
01:15And our work every day, and before the pandemic, we were essential.
01:19So DeBragio came on record in saying, and I'm paraphrasing the other day, that, oh, teachers is inevitable. Teachers are
01:26going to contract COVID, right? But they'll be back in two weeks.
01:29I do not want to go to any of my babies' funerals or their families' funerals. I love them too
01:36much for them. These steps advocate for all students, as opposed to just your grade, and I'm so, so grateful.
01:42What do we want?
01:44DP!
01:45When do we want it?
01:47Now!
01:48If we don't get it!
01:51If we don't get it!
01:54If we don't get it!
01:54Don't get it!
01:55What's wrong?
01:56What do we want?
01:57When do we want it?
02:01They do.
02:01Number one, take one.
