Sorry. No. https://equitablemath.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/11/1_STRIDE1.pdf The one that really makes me giggle is the concept that correct answers in tests reinforce white Supremacy.
Sorry. No. https://equitablemath.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/11/1_STRIDE1.pdf 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.
ridiculous! the mental gymnastics some people do to justify their belief system of systemic racism/sexism
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.
Does this mean that scientific calculators and computers are racist because they give correct answers to mathematical operations?
PLUS: 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! https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/science-bears-fingerprints-colonialism-180968709/
