Earlier this year- Dave Grohl started his Dave's True Stories series - telling amazing tales of his rock and roll career. And now, he's made the first audio post to the series - coming to the defense of some of our most essential workers - teachers.

 

“So, with me being a high school dropout, you’d imagine the current debate surrounding the reopening of schools wouldn’t register so much a blip on my rock & roll radar, right? Wrong. My mother was a public school teacher.”

 

Please take 10 minute to listen to the full post below ... his well articulated thoughts are mostly serious - with a little Dave humor sprinkled in here and there.    

 

The post ends with this powerful quote - "Teachers want to teach, not die.  And we should support and protect them like the national treasures that they are.  For without them, where would we be.  May we show these tireless altruists a little altruism in return.  I would for my favorite teacher, wouldn't you?"
