Eh. I can do my gazintas. What else do I really need?
Racist! Based om merit not affirmative diversity.
We have had two grand kids in Math Olympics and winning top math honors through middle school.
The Grand Daughter irrelevantly referred to herself and a young former Russian girls as the female honkies of the math team.
Her younger brother and one other American honky shared the spotlight with Indians from India, Chinese and SE Asians, all males.
Is the girl holding the flag even on the team? She’s not wearing the uniform. This competition is a meritocracy. Go USA.
“Whitey better start hitting the books.”
Too late for many Whitey’s!
Amen!
Who cares what their background is. If they’re Americans, they’re Americans.
DACA DACA DOO.
I think she’s probably part of the Romanian staff. Kind of like the people who hold the signs with the country name in the Olympic opening ceremonies.
Amen!
The team apparently also expelled all the white people. RACISM!
The type of immigrants Trump likes. I hope he invites them to the White House.
Or women.
Obviously the beneficiaries of white privilege.
The males have been told their entire lives that they are worthless pieces of crap and everything bad is their fault and they should just sit there and shut up.
You really have to wonder if public school teachers would recognize a white boy who has an aptitude for math and encourage him in that direction, or would they try to suppress him (pharmaceutically or otherwise) in the name of giving a favored kid a better chance.
That said, congratulations to these kids. They are an excellent example of what can be achieved with LEGAL immigration.
Certainly beats winning the soccer World Cup...
You have to qualify for the World Cup first, D'oh!
The caption quoted in this thread is a little confusing. I'd assume that the seven people named in it are the seven people who aren't in a bear costume, but I looked for the two who don't have names that are traditionally masculine in English. If these search results aren't misleading, these two are male too. I also checked against a small number of other team pictures online.
So my guess now is that these uncostumed people are the six students on the team with someone like a staff member assigned to hold the sign (see post #28), and the team coach named in the caption is not in this picture.
I can imagine a different uniform color and style for girls, though such a practice may be condemned as SEXIST and NON-INCLUSIVE (of those competitors who identify as "genderless," a member of some fifth gender, or as a complex mix of genders that shifts according to the weather and the phases of the moon).
When you are coming up from poverty and hunger, you are focused on the material things make life better. You have no time for pondering microagressions. Give them a couple of generations and they will take all that for granted, just like white kids do today.
The girl is not on the team, I think. There were 6 competitors and six males (they all look male to me) and six male names. Actually I don’t know what to think of the girl being there.
