Deconstructing Racism in Mathematics Instruction
White supremacy culture infiltrates math classrooms in everyday teacher actions. Coupled with the beliefs that underlie these actions, they perpetuate educational harm on Black, Latinx, and multilingual students, denying them full access to the world of mathematics.The table below identifies the ways in which white supremacy shows up in math classrooms.
Dismantling white supremacy in math classrooms
We see white supremacy culture show up in the mathematics classroom even as we carry out our professional responsibilities outlined in the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP). Using CSTPas a framework, we see white supremacy culture in the mathematics classroom can show up when:
• The focus is on getting the “right” answer.
• Independent practice is valued over teamwork or collaboration.
• “Real-world math” is valued over math in the real world.
• Students are tracked (into courses/pathways and within the classroom).
• Participation structures reinforce dominant ways of being.
Nope
...and, I stand corrected. 49
Officially no. But he hand picked Obama to lead it unofficially under his supervision and they dutifully directed the swag to Ayers’ friends in crime, who had various programs designed to pay them well, er, to “educate”.
That Obama was willing and able to play the game whereby so-called progressives shook people down is probably a part of why he got so much notice in the DNC ... they probably would never consider anyone who won’t help them get richer through corruption.
A consulting engineer is someone you pay to tell you what you could have looked up on your own but by signing off helps to shield you from lawyers ... a bit.
There’s a reason why Bill Ayers stopped making bombs to teach teachers ... he could do more damage that way.
People don’t often realize this but separate but equal was expensive, increasing the cost of education, frequently in communities that were just getting by. Whites in poor communities were adversely affected by these costs. Both in terms of resources available to each child and extra taxes to pay for it.
As for blacks, well there was a time many black communities valued education and I will here opine that as race grievance hustlers pushed the envelope on what constituted what they now call white supremacy, and in doing so made being educated somehow associated with being white in black subculture, they helped dumb down people too, not just keeping them unhappier and angrier than they’d otherwise be.
And now white woke nitwits are joining in with the effort ... they may not be the KKK but if the old school bigots of yesteryear could see them now they’d be applauding because the woke are helping to do what the Klan failed to do: destroy black families, murder half their babies, and popularize a subculture that values anger and emotion over information and pride over facts.
The Woke aren’t the Klan ... they’re worse. And the Klan was pretty damn bad to begin with.
