And he has a good reason: His mother was a teacher in public schools for 35 years.⁠ ⁠ In a powerful essay published Tuesday in The Atlantic — with an audio version posted on the Foo Fighters’ Soundcloud — Grohl spoke out in support of remote learning that will protect teachers and school employees who may be susceptible to COVID-19.⁠ ⁠ Trump and Education Secretary Betsy DeVos do not have any kind of plan in place as to how schools could reopen safely. DeVos has gone so far as to pass the buck to school officials, telling CNN earlier this month that educators “can figure out what is going to be right for their specific situation.”⁠ ⁠ Grohl pointed out the absurdity of this request.⁠ ⁠ “Every teacher has a ‘plan.’ Don’t they deserve one, too?” the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee wrote.⁠ ⁠ “My mother had to come up with three separate lesson plans every single day (public speaking, AP English, and English 10), because that’s what teachers do: They provide you with the necessary tools to survive. Who is providing them with a set of their own? America’s teachers are caught in a trap, set by indecisive and conflicting sectors of failed leadership that have never been in their position and can’t possibly relate to the unique challenges they face.”⁠ ⁠ Read more at our link in bio. // 📷 Getty Images⁠」7月25日 1時45分
