The Mathematical Association of America released a statement Friday claiming both that mathematicians should engage in uncomfortable conversations about race, and that policies of from the Trump administration, like the lack of a mask mandate in the United States, are somehow an affront to mathematics. The group concludes with a call for a pursuit of justice within math.

If math is racist...
...what does that make the Left’s infatuation with science?

... and "sexist" too. Mustn't forget the ladies.
As parent of a daughter who graduated Magna Cum Laude in Aerospace Engineering, with subsequent Masters in Mechanical Engineering, the above observation is a bit tongue in cheek.

OFFS. Now everything from 2 + 2 to the mechanics of the cosmos is racist. When is it gonna become legal to beat the shit out of some of these people?

... mathematicians should engage in uncomfortable conversations about race...Yeah, like reading "The Bell Curve," or visiting this site:
La Griffe du Lion, which draws some interesting conclusions that follow from Gaussian distributions of IQ, athletic ability, and criminality.
To: The_Media_never_lie
ONLY to the low IQ crowd can math, or truth, be racist.

that mathematicians should engage in uncomfortable conversations about race,
= = =
OK students, let’s have some uncomfortable conversations.
Let’s take that number “ONE”.
What race is it?
Is it Prime (good).
How about “TWO” and “THREE”??
Prime, hooray.
Now “FOUR”
Not Prime
What race is it?
How about negative numbers
And Irrational numbers
and INFINITY!!??
So many possible races, that makes me uncomfortable.

These guys should stick with numbers & stop giving numbers a bad name.

This is why I love math and engineering
Its black and white. Right and wrong. Correct and incorrect
Liberals have poisoned every institution. They cant touch math
Heres their pathetic attempt
Spot on!
