2+2=4 is racist, you see.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – According to a Teach for America website, culturally responsive teaching in math is important because “math has traditionally been seen as the domain of old, White men.”
As reported earlier this week, Teach for America groups across the country are committing themselves to “culturally responsive teaching,” a radical pedagogy used by communist Bill Ayers and other blatant anti-American indoctrinators.
The site, Culturally Responsive Teaching, Teach for America, says that because math is seen as a domain for old, white men, many students cannot identify with it. Therefore, educators should find ways to relate math to the lives of their students.
Judging from the math curriculum recommended, this TFA group, like all other social justice educators, wants minorities to believe that what relates most to their lives in America is racism and oppression.
For example, the site recommends “Critically Conscious Mathematics” and “Radical Math.” [...]
Radical Math provides hundreds of social justice math lessons obviously meant to indoctrinate. For example, lesson titles include “Sweatshop Accounting,” “Racism and Stop and Frisk,” “When Equal Isn’t Fair,” “The Square Root of a Fair Share” and “Home Buying While Brown or Black.”

Ah fer crissake. So, being able to do math is acting White?
Yeah, like this, "At a speed of 80 mph, how long does it take to go 80 miles?"
"Duhhhh ....... eight hours."
Fuggem. They want the Black ferals to stay ignorant, let 'em.

What Pan said. When someone wants to slit their own throat just get out of the way. Emphasis for white acting types on getting out!

It's self fulfilling,keep them stupid and keep them angry and you have a voter for ever. The really stupid part is that numbers are racist as if numbers are a reality of some sort based on only working for white people.

And the irony is that our number system as well as some of the fundamental mathematics are of Arab/Persian/Indian origin. Also it's well known that students from East Asia do well in it. This is really just another convoluted and contrived explanation for the persistent performance gap between white and (specifically) black students.

And of course for the geniuses running the indoctrination camps nothing boosts low self-esteem like pulling everybody else down into the muck. I say get the muck out of there!
