Math is the foundation of all science. It is the universal language. We as a civilization cannot exist without a foundation of math.
That is why the Left is ardently trying to destroy math. They want to erode the foundation of our technologically advanced civilization until it collapses.
The latest attack on math is A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction.
This is how it describes itself:
A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction is an integrated approach to mathematics that centers Black, Latinx, and Multilingual students in grades 6-8, addresses barriers to math equity, and aligns instruction to grade-level priority standards. The Pathway offers guidance and resources for educators to use now as they plan their curriculum, while also offering opportunities for ongoing self-reflection as they seek to develop an anti-racist math practice. The toolkit “strides” serve as multiple on-ramps for educators as they navigate the individual and collective journey from equity to anti-racism.
Math as anti-racism. That is gobbledygook.
Pretty much the way math has been taught for centuries in the Western World, that allowed us to create powered flight, electricity, nuclear energy, computers, modern medicine, etc.
That’s what they want to eliminate.
They want math where you don’t have to show your work or get the right answer.
This is actually racist as fuck. It assumes that Black, LatinX (Latino or those of you who are not language colonizers), and Multilingual students can’t learn to do proper math.
Also, does Mutlilignal students include the kids who speak Chinese to Japanese at home and get 5s on the Math AP exam every year?
This is such a racist word-salad that I legitimately can’t construct a rational argument against it.
I have no idea how making change, calculating percentages, or solving for an unknown changes depending on skin color?
If you want to acknowledge the contributions of Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, the founder of Algebra, fine. The problem is that this won’t be used to teach algebra but be used to attack the West for Islamophobia.
Alan Turing was a fantastic mathematician. I fully expect math classes not to teach about his developments of algorithms and computing language or how he cracked the German Enigma machine through vector analysis, but how he was driven to suicide for being gay in the 1940s.
That’s the point, not to teach math but to turn math into grievance studies.
This will dumb down students on purpose.
Remember that Mao executed all the Chinese professors and scientists that were educated in the West. So did Pol Pot. So did Castro and Che.
Rather than execute the intellectuals, they will simply dumb the kids down in middle school so much that they will be unable to learn anything useful after that.
A handful of the children of the elite will not learn this so that they stay at the top, but the rest of society will be turned into ignorant peasants who can tell you how many dicks Alan Turing sucked but not how to solve for x.
Want proof?
This was funded in part by Bill “you will learn to like synthetic meat” Gates. His daughter won’t learn this but your kids will. His daughter will remain useful to society but yours will not be able to advance.
The new dark ages are upon us.
