Was it U of North Carolina that made up phantom courses for some of their athletes? They were PE courses, naturally. I though, while you’re at it, why not give them some challenging phantom courses?

Moving back to "Separate but Equal"

"I have a dream. That one day our scientists and physicists will be judged by their ability to differentiate equations, and not the color of their skin"

“learning assistants,” individuals with a “passion” for “education equity,”


Wouldn’t “education equity” require “learning assistants” for all physics students, not just “diverse” physics students?

Yep. We sure did. Now it’s back in style. And in the same place that it always was: on the Left.

Last time I looked, the electromagnetic spectrum didn’t care what color your skin was. I’m pretty sure Newton’s laws of motion work the same regardless of where you come from - their frame of reference has nothing to do with ethnicity. The notion that certain races may need a different curricula, that they cannot hack the regular one, is actually racist. I know that term has been wildly over used and inappropriately applied far too much lately. But this right here, this kind of thing actually is racist at its foundation.

This is real racism. The bigotry of low expectations.

The section between 400 and 700 nm wavelength cares quite a bit.

That was them separate from us, not us separate from them ... apparently.

E=MC squared is so patriarchal. We should at least try it cubed for a while.

February 24, 2002. Yes, 2002. Talk about way ahead of his time!

Ebonics Math Book

I'm finding that I cannot relate to my math books very well. I'm pretty intelligent, was in the gifted children classes and scored high on IQ tests, and have a high GPA. But whenever I look at a math book it's like the way they talk is so...how shall I say it...white conservative? It's just a turn-off for me and I also think other minorities to be reading a book written by someone we are supposed to resent or that resents us.

Are there any Ebonics math books out there? I'm finishing up the higher math courses at the undergraduate level and I'm just starting to get sick of it. If it were presented in a different way then maybe I could dig it and would enjoy it more.

It's almost like a conspiracy. Those that don't think like white men can't make it, because the books are all written for people that think like them. In a way it protects white society because then only white-washed minorities become educated and get the good jobs with the other educated white people.

Excellent method to help people start to believe minorities are inferior in some way.
