Educators around the US have come out to condemn the 'Dismantling Racism in Mathematics' program.
It centers around a workbook which asserts that asking students to find the correct answer for math problems is inherently harmful for minorities.
So far, the workbook is being used by school districts in Georgia, Ohio, California and Oregon.

Thanks to the teacher unions and leftist school boards for the high standards they set. I am so glad my kids are done and out in the work place but i worry about the grand kids be subjected to this nonsense.

Asians as a group score high in math but for some reason they don't count when studies are done. The reason they score high? They have a high percentage of 2 parent families.

And what the nitwits that promote this garbage are too stupid to see is that their very assertion is declaring minorities to be too stupid to figure anything out. And calling someone stupid based on their race is about as racist as it gets.

math isn't racist and facts don't care about your feelings.

There are people who know how to count, and people who don't know how to count.

The exact quote is "there are 3 kinds of people, those who can count and those who can't"
