A Vanderbilt math professor criticized the subject for being too "white" and "cisheteropatriarchal" in a lecture he presented at a major mathematician conference earlier this month.

Luis Leyva, an assistant professor of mathematics at Vanderbilt Peabody College of Education and Human Development in Nashville, Tennessee, at the Joint Mathematics Meeting on January 4 delivered a lecture titled "Undergraduate Mathematics Education as a White, Cisheteropatriarchal Space and Opportunities for Structural Disruption to Advance Queer of Color Justice."

I agree. Ban all nonwhite males and women from all math courses. They don’t like it anyways.

So math is now racist—as is classical music, punctuality, weight control, exercising, swimming, having Mike as a first name, Dr. Seuss books and milk.

Notice this professor is a member of the College of Education. I wonder if the department of Mathematics is part of that college.

Not only are the Indians "Aryans" but they like the swastika.

But do we know if the inventor of the Indian numerals spoke an Indo-Iranian language or a Dravidian language? The latter were the descendants of the people there before the Aryan invasion.

Black hate mongers condem all things they see as “White”. It is evil and helps no one.

Then tell this idiot its paycheck will be calculated using POC math where 2+2= any integer from -1000000 to -5000.

Math is objective truth.

It must be destroyed.

Black Queer Students’ Counter-Stories of Invisibility in Undergraduate STEM as a White, Cisheteropatriarchal Space
Article Sep 2022: Luis Leyva, Taylor McNeill, B R. Balmer[...] Zander D. Alley
Black queer undergraduates experience invisibility at the juncture of antiblack racism and cisheteropatriarchy in their campus environments. With the absence of research on queer students of color in undergraduate STEM, it has been unexplored how Black queer invisibility is reinforced and disrupted in uniquely racialized and cisheteronormative STEM...

I kind of feel sorry for those people. They have the guts to try, but they’re catastrophically unprepared to succeed ... and they don’t know it. They could be incorporated as the “Dunning-Kreuger Aircraft Company”.

Whew! I posted before reading all of the posts and several FREEPERS pointed out that this “Professor” is not a member of the mathematics department.
