Public school teachers are the vanguard of a group called BAMN (By Any Means Necessary). BAMN has many dozens of teachers among its members, and some of those so-called educators are visible, outspoken BAMN leaders.
The affiliation between Antifa and BAMN caught the attention of the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security last July when BAMN and other extremists started a riot and attacked marchers at a white nationalist rally in Sacramento. As a result of the violence, 10 people were hospitalized, including several with knife wounds.
A prominent BAMN organizer is Yvette Felarca, a middle school teacher in Berkeley. A pro-violence militant, Felarca faces felony charges for inciting a riot in Sacramento.
The Felarca-led BAMN group in Berkeley teamed up with Antifa to stage protests to keep gay conservative activist Milo Yiannopoulos and author Ann Coulter from speaking in Berkeley.
Just last weekend, Felarca helped organize BAMN’s mass demonstrations that “shut down” an anti-Marxism rally in Berkeley. As with BAMN’s other organized actions, left-wing actors at Saturday demonstrations violently attacked peaceful protesters.”
The latest BAMN incident in Berkeley prompted House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to issue her “unequivocal condemnation” of Antifa last week.
In response, Felarca called the Berkeley action a “resounding success.”
Despite numerous warnings from the school district, Felarca has tried to recruit students during school hours to join BAMN in its subversive activities.
When the district tried to hold a disciplinary hearing, students swarmed the event and tried to shut it down.
The school district claimed that Felarca and other BAMN members “were actively trying to brainwash and manipulate” students to serve her “own selfish interests,” calling her conduct “particularly reprehensible.”
Because of union protection, Felarca is actively teaching today.
A similar problem is occurring in the Detroit area in Michigan.
BAMN organizer Nicole Conaway, a high school teacher, organized a sickout at her school in 2015 to protest the policies of Republican Governor Rick Snyder. The sickout forced six Detroit-area schools to cancel classes, disrupting the education of nearly 4,000 students.
BAMN members are active within the National Education Association (NEA), the country’s largest teacher union, as well as local and state unions. BAMN ran five candidates for national leadership positions within NEA in 2017. Last year, 17 BAMN members ran for positions with the Detroit Federation of Teachers.
These paid protesters may not have the radical commitment that the Antifa and BAMN leadership espouse, but both Antifa and BAMN are happy to have the support to make their movements look bigger than they really are.
Both BAMN and Antifa trace their roots to the Marxist radical Revolutionary Workers League (RWL). For many years before founding BAMN in 1995, RWL forged an alliance with the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), a perverted pedophile group.
Out of these dregs of society come active public school teachers, which should give parents a serious wake up call to recognize their need to be more involved in school affairs, and have a greater say in who teaches their children and what their children are being taught.
