The NBA and NFL are pure meritocracies; the best are hired and play regardless of background. I don’t hear her bitching about that!

"You expect this sort of crap in sociology, the arts and other "soft" subjects, but MATH--just damn!"

It's NOT math. It's how to, supposedly, TEACH math.

Education majors are the softest of soft degrees. They are the ones whose fontanelle never closed, and they keep pressing on it because they like the pretty colors...

I guess the requirement that college professors have an IQ over 37 has been waived.

This professor is merely starting that white people are generally more intelligent than certain other people of “colour”.

With a math problem you either get the right answer or you don’t.

How does race inter into that?

This is the academic equivalent of a ‘Rollex ‘ watch. Scaled counterfeit.

That is obvious since non white people have no merit in the estimation of the leftists who push this drivel.

I went to see The Last Jedi two weeks ago. Bought some popcorn and a drink, the kid behind the counter rang it up and said $4.80. I gave him a five, he punched it into the register and told me I owed him 20 cents.
