The MAA is primarily a society for math teachers not for professional mathematicians. What I can remember of the publication it seemed to lean toward high school level teachers. If my perception is correct; that its very K12 oriented then the modern educrat establishment has enormous influence. This explains it’s ridiculous “wokeness”.
In Dinesh D’souza’s first book, iirc, circa 1993, he said the the there were maybe two blacks/year getting actual PhDs in Mathematics, and the rest were getting PhDs in Education for teaching math.
