    Sorry. No.

    In order to embody antiracist math education, teachers ​
    must engage in critical praxis that interrogates the ways
    in which they perpetuate white supremacy culture in their
    own classrooms, and develop a plan toward antiracist math
    education to address issues of equity for Black, Latinx, and
    multilingual students. ​

    Literature can be racist. History can be racist. Art and Music can be racist.
    How in the hell is it possible for Math to be racist?
    You arrive at a solution that is either correct, or incorrect.
    The correct solution is the same no mater your color, race, religion, or sex.
    These people are truly insane.
    The fact that people with this mindset are in charge of our Government and Schools is one of the many reasons I stack.

    It's not.

    It's the Bill Gates funded school of woke maths. And it's real.

    Does this mean that scientific calculators and computers are racist because they give correct answers to mathematical operations?

    Africans had their own way of counting before the whites started colonising Africa and imposing the white system of counting and science. We need to decolonise science as western science does not explain how things like black magic work!

    Subject: Stupid Question... Excellent Answer!


    What a great comeback to a typical, modern, politically correct, idiot journalist…

    LEIGH SALES; Idiot Journalist


    For those that don't know him, Major General Peter Cosgrove is an Australian.






    General Cosgrove was interviewed on TV recently.

    Read his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children.

    Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you have to love this!
    This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.


    This is a portion of an ABC interview between a female journalist Leigh Sales and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military Headquarters.

    LEIGH SALES:
    So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?

    GENERAL COSGROVE:

    We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery and shooting.

    LEIGH SALES:
    Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?

    GENERAL COSGROVE:

    I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.

    LEIGH SALES:
    Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?

    GENERAL COSGROVE:

    I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.

    LEIGH SALES:
    But you're equipping them to become violent killers.

    GENERAL COSGROVE:

    Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?

    The broadcast went silent for 46 seconds and when it returned, the interview was over.

    God I would pay money to have seen her face…
