Rank and File Educators (MORE Caucus), a plethora of emails has come into the SBSB newsroom. All emails were quite supportive as well as sharing many instances in which MORE has shown itself not to be particularly enamored with Jews.
The Crack Team has sifted through many an email. Some are from just plain cranks, other emails were with accusations that could not be verified. Many were easily verified, like the following:
This past March 30 on X, DSA member @blackredguard1 reposted a video of Shani Louk dancing moments before she was kidnapped by Hamas on October 7, 2023. We here at SBSB have deep feelings about DSA which we feel this is not the time visit. Seriously, is anyone surprised?
What is surprising MORE member, (OK, not really THAT surprising), a UFT Chapter Leader at Pace University High School, UFT high school executive board member. as well as a DSA member, Alex Jallot posted a reply to the reposted video. Obviously, Alex doesn't know what is posted online, stays online (Click here).
And for when Alex deletes his X account, let's remind him of Social Media Rule #1!
All Alex had to say was...
"I'm amazed at how little rhythm these people (JEWS?) have."
Class act that Alex is. As one Crack Team member shared with me...
It's beyond the pale. How someone that professes progressive/left politics and sits on the UFT Exec board could so casually post such a callous and hurtful joke should be cause for deep concern for everyone irregardless of politics.
I am appalled. Especially reading this on one of the holiest of days. I am sure that Alex doesn't mind having these two days off thanks to the Jews.
Hey Alex, have you shared these views with Jewish members of his chapter? If not, why? Does Pace University know your views of Jews? Have you shared your views with any Jewish members of the executive board you sit on? Can Jewish UFT members have any faith in you?
Some things need to happen. The Movement of Rank and File Educators (MORE Caucus) must immediately disassociate itself from Alex Jallot and send out a statement decrying Alex Jallot's statement. In fact, the Movement of Rank and File Educators (MORE Caucus) must immediately remove from the caucus. I, and several others, were shunned and mustered out of the Movement of Rank and File Educators (MORE Caucus) in 2018 for much, much, much much, much less.
I have no idea if the UFT can remove executive board members for cause, but if this can be done a full investigation and removal of Alex Jallot must be done posthaste.
If the above is improbable, we here at SBSB call for Alex Jallot to immediately resign his seat on the high school executive board as well as resign as chapter leader at Pace University High School.
This can not be tolerated. The Movement of Rank and File Educators (MORE Caucus) would be the first to come out against, as well as denounce, Mike Mulgrew for passing gas incorrectly. It's time for the Movement of Rank and File Educators (MORE Caucus) to put its money from where its mouth is.

In fact we were shunned by those same leftists for trying build an open and inclusive caucus. One Jewish friend was literally marginalized and told (on a large email thread) that he was too “white” to be expressing any non Trotsky views about PoC. When he reminded the sender of his (painful) family and shared Jewish history he was reminded that he and all Jews were ‘white’ and did not share any such painful history. That is the permanent mentality of that group.
Honestly, I’m almost relieved that their anti semitism has crept up to the surface here and has been called out by you. But, as you are aware, the real people pulling the strings over there will always lurk in the shadows. They’ll lash out at you for this Peter so, while I admire your bravery here, I also feel concern for you as we both know you will be dealing with their retaliation in the days and weeks to come. Stay safe and be well.
