Either all races live separately, or there can be only one race altogether
It's not workinghttps://dailycaller.com/2017/10/…
A University of Illinois math professor believes that algebra and geometry perpetuate “white privilege” because Greek terms give Caucasians unearned credit for the subject.But that isn’t the professor’s only complaint. She also believes that evaluations for math proficiency perpetuates discrimination against minority students, if they do worse than their white counterparts.
“On many levels, mathematics itself operates as Whiteness,” she argues with complete sincerity, according to Campus Reform. “Who gets credit for doing and developing mathematics, who is capable in mathematics, and who is seen as part of the mathematical community is generally viewed as White.”

The Seattle Public Schools Ethnic Studies Advisory Committee (ESAC) released a rough draft of notes for its Math Ethnic Studies framework in late September, which attempts to connects math to a history of oppression.- wait till they find out that algebra is arabic.uan

- where I still struggled at math. Then my parents got me a tutor and I got better. But I don't blame white people fro my math problems.jmckinno
- ffs even mathematics... where does it end?renderedred
- what a fucking idiot. on a global scale, mathematics is dominated by everyone other than whites._niko
- So her solution in the US is instead of increasing teaching and resources to struggling non-whites, it's to give them a free pass by lowering expectations?_niko
- dailyfuckingcaller...Salarrue
- This seems extremely racist and counter-productive. This will not help american non-whites compete on a global scale but insted keep them in poverty perpetually_niko

I live in Mississauga Ontario. Just outside of Toronto. It's about as multi-cultural as you can get...exador1 - my wife's family is from India. My kids are mixed. we've been together for 26 years.

- The daily caller likes to amplify this shit as if its an actual thing. The diversity-dean burocrati just talk to each otherGnash
- Yeah this is just outrage porn. Even the Seattle curriculum thing looks like it's more of an attempt to teach math by looking at examples from black history.yuekit
