  • “white supremacy” in math is teachers asking students to “show their work” when solving math problems
  • Students are encouraged to make TikTok videos rather than bow to the “paternalism” of writing things down.
  • the Oregon Department of Education encouraged teachers to take “ethnomathematics”
  • teachers to “identify and challenge the ways that math is used to uphold capitalist, imperialist, and racist views.”
  • “Objectivity,” if one doesn’t follow, is considered an aspect of white supremacy.
