You know what I think...? I think Maves is a Marxis and racist. That's what I think.
She said no such thing.

Find a quote of her saying anything remotely similar to what you just claimed. And while you're at it, find any support for the claim made in the OP i.e. that progressive educators were saying "math is racist".

You "think" what you are told to think.

To be fair you think everyone outside of the Proud Boys movement is a Marxist and a racist or not white and not a fascist to give it its English translation.

Math instructions are in the bible: " Go forth and MULTIPLY''.

So even GOD knew we needed to work on math skills.

@Earl-of-Trumps

The answers are not regarded as mathematically correct or incorrect. Very obviously, they regard the answers as politically correct or incorrect. As science has a huge authority, however, they always say about the politically incorrect answer that it is incorrect mathematically. They have enough corrupt professors to back such a policy.

Don't take seriously when Earl and other right wing nuts distort a reform meant to improve math education. At the same time, math questions might have a correct answer but:

"For decades, America’s schools have tried and failed to close gaps on math test scores between White students and students of color. That’s not because math discriminates by race, and it’s not beca ...[text shortened]... actices—even good ones—are influenced by culture and perspective."

Yeah? Well, it wasn’t because of being mixed that it failed, was it?
