"Math equity" is now a term trumped up by the SJW/PC crowd referring to the growing insistence among math educators that teaching mathematics in classrooms comes with inherently biased racist methodology that must be addressed.
Furthermore, the SJW/PC crowd in favor of "math equity" stresses the importance of social justice warrior issues such as race, diversity, and gender when it comes to mathematics education.
According to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, "“It (Math equity) requires mathematics teachers to reflect on their own identity, positions, and beliefs in regards to racist and sorting-based mechanisms. It involves noticing students, learning about the worlds they live in, and building mathematics that comes from these worlds. And finally, it involves engaging other educators in partnerships to build equity-oriented communities."

But Math is hard! Of course it's wacist. Lets face it, the average SJW doesn't have the IQ to handle anything beyond 2nd grade arithmetic. Of course they throw out the race card, like they do for anything else that gets their little panties in a bunch.
Wisconsin professor claims that the University of Wisconsin is pushing a race based diversity grading and professors inflate grades so that everyone scores well so that they don't have race grade inequities.
One beautiful thing about math, at least below the 300 level theoretical university stuff.
No interpretation. The answer is the answer. Race makes no difference whatsoever.
