This reminds me that my ex who was born and raised in Seattle got upset at me when I once said I hope my kids are straight and normal so their lives can be easier (it was early 2010's, gay marriage shit was all over the place so it came up somehow), and she blew up at me (she was very chill otherwise) and said she hopes our kids turn out gay

Kind of speaks to the whole city

Power and oppression, as defined by

ethnic studies, are the ways in which

individuals and groups define

mathematical knowledge so as to see

“Western” mathematics as the only

legitimate expression of mathematical

identity and intelligence. This definition

of legitimacy is then used to

disenfranchise people and

communities of color. This erases the

historical contributions of people and

communities of color.

"It literally keeps them from learning math by teaching them it's just for white people "

There's a lot of good grounds for criticizing this "Math ethnic studies" rubric, but I don't think that's one of them. I think the point is to teach kids that math isn't just a White or European thing but something developed over time by lots of cultures.

I think the idea, which is not *totally* mistaken, is that some kids are less likely to show interest in math if they think it's just a white thing. So by emphasizing mathematical developments by multiple cultures and encouraging students to think of all sorts of people as mathematicians in some ways, it will help a greater swath of students develop hard math skills. That's not going to be some sort of silver bullet, but it actually might plausible help a few students.

The oppressor/liberation stuff is ideological, quasi-religious hogwash.

The new anthology, “Building Support for Scholarly Methods in Mathematics,” is the same book that published a chapter by Rochelle Gutierrez, who argued that algebra and geometry can perpetuate white privilege.

As Campus Reform reported last week, Gutierrez worries that “curricula emphasizing terms like Pythagorean theorem and pi perpetuate a perception that mathematics was largely developed by Greeks and other Europeans.”

Good ol' Seattle. Remember this gem from 2006?

Planning for the future is racist.

https://web.archive.org/web/20060522101405/https://www.seattleschools.org/area/equityandrace/definitionofrace.xml

Cultural Racism:

Those aspects of society that overtly and covertly attribute value and normality to white people and Whiteness, and devalue, stereotype, and label people of color as “other”, different, less than, or render them invisible. Examples of these norms include defining white skin tones as nude or flesh colored, HAVING A FUTURE TIME ORIENTATION, emphasizing individualism as opposed to a more collective ideology, defining one form of English as standard, and identifying only Whites as great writers or composers.
