Who knew math was “capitalist, imperialist, and racist”?
Today we’re taking our readers directly to a head-spinning example of the lunacy that leftist billionaire Bill Gates is funding through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
The Washington Examiner tops its crucial exposé with these words: “Gates Foundation behind effort to end white supremacy in math instruction by eliminating need for students to show work.”
No kidding.
This opinion piece by Jeremy Beaman explains The “Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction” which is best described as racist.
The actual guidelines to the Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction uses these descriptive words, claiming to facilitate 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 site includes “5 Strides on the Path to Math Equality,” each with its own download
Rather than focusing on one correct answer, the program encourages math teachers to “come up with at least two answers that might solve a problem.”
It continues with this indecipherable jargon: “Challenge standardized test questions by getting the ‘right’ answer, and justify other answers by unpacking the assumptions that are made in the problem.”
The scheme also encourages teachers to “center ethnomathematics,” which includes a variety of guidelines. One of them instructs educators to “identify and challenge the ways that math is used to uphold capitalist, imperialist, and racist views.”
The consequences of this radicalism passing as education can’t be overstated. A catastrophe is first invading America’s far left, educrat-run classrooms* and will then envelop our nation unless we expose and eradicate it now.
