The College Fix recently reported on the Oregon Department of Education’s effort to promote “math equity.”
The effort is outlined in an 82-page training manual distributed to educators and titled “A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction: Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Instruction.”
I went through Analytic Geometry and Calculus 1, 2, and 3 in Engineering school with a guy from Nigeria who was the blackest person I've ever seen and as far as I know he never made one single mistake. There was no way to keep up with him. I understand he went on to a PhD in Mathematics. Just sayin...
Plenty of different races that are dumber than rocks. I just don’t understand how anyone could entertain the idea that math is somehow racist. Either your work is correct or it’s not. MadMarlin
I fix airplanes. Can ya imagine how safe you'd feel if I didn't have to get the right answer as long as I "understood the concept"? I understand rivets will hold this wing spar repair on, but I don't need to know how many, what size, or what type, so I'll just throw a couple of these small aluminum pop rivets in here. That'll work.
I'm sure most people remember the Florida International University pedestrian bridge collapse. Happened March of 2018. A result of "math is racist" engineers and architects.

Heh...I've seen all 18 seasons of Aircrash Investigations so it looks like the "near enough" concept has been around a l-o-n-g time ☺
I wonder if Pedowood intends to release Idiocracy 2 -the 2021 version?
They tried this "diversity" shit in hiring air traffic controllers until Tucker pointed out the idiocy. But that was still during Trump's term, so I'll bet they're back at it. Moral of the story: Don't fly and watch out for falling objects. Like jet engines.
Sure. Why not? Everything else is becoming racist.

ReplyDeleteSome people make the best of their time; some make excuses.
DeleteHappens in all shades, but yeah, seems disproportionate in some too.
The funny/notfunny part is that Oregon is about the Whitest state in the country.
ReplyDeleteHoly Cow, Zip! I just checked. It's whiter than Bernie Sanders Vermont!
DeleteI didn't think that was possible!!!
82 pages to describe why some black folks are dumber than rocks?

"Either your work is correct or it's not."
DeleteThat statement is obviously racist, MadMarlin!

ReplyDeleteThe future of this country is fucked beyond repair
ReplyDeleteJD
When do black folks finally stand up and say, "Stop It. This shit is embarrassing".
ReplyDeleteIs that a trick question?
DeleteBill Cosby used to, and look what happened to him.
DeleteUnderpay everyone who buys this BS. When they show their work accuse them of racism and white supremacy and see how fast it stops.
ReplyDelete2+2=3. Naw man, ya'll cheatin me, 2+2=5. Someone's gonna die in this argument.
ReplyDeleteEven better, Scientific American, which is neither scientific nor American, just announced that quantum physics is racist.
ReplyDeleteNext?
Next time you do your taxes send those racist IRS agents a Tik Tok video.
