Illinois professor apparently thinks teaching these subjects is racist.

[DonS 3,067]

Wow. Guess all the Asians and Indians who kick everyone's @sses at math are a prime example of this astounding theory.

[Drizzay 645]

I think people are saying these things just to get other people going. It is getting more and more ridiculous.

Pythagorean Theorems Matter

More people are becoming aware. These aren't stupid people. They're people with an agenda, and it isn't to defend your way of life.

solution really

 

If I have 3 bushels of cotton and I need 10 bushels of cotton, solve for X

 

3 + X = 10

Yeah, I've noticed this especially with Tucker Carlson and Shawn Scammitty.

 

Apparently, the plan for Ratings is to find The looniest Nut Job On The Fringe they can. Put them on the air and scare the hell out of mr. And mrs. Elmer Topeka from butt Lick Indiana.

 

It's quite the coup. Because you can sure as hell bet that Don Lemon isn't going to have the grand wizard from the Klan on his show.

Well, that'd be RACES to point that little hate-nugget out.

Fortunately checks are becoming obsolete. If you can balance your checkbook, you're a white privileged racist.

[TimmySmith 2,782]

After careful number crunching, would.

I for one think it is a great idea to encourage minorities to think negative things about mathematics. Only good can come out of this.

 

As for the Greek names and letters... that ship has sailed, get over it. I mean seriously, pi is a symbol that represents a number; it's got to be something, and that's what it is. I don't hanker back to the heyday of Greek civilization whenever I see it.

In a roundabout way she is saying that certain cultures suck at math and sitting in a classroom filled with white people that get math is a bad experience which further their feelings of inequality. If true, I have no idea what could be done about it.

[DankNuggs 305]

I really have no idea what shes saying

[Cloaca du jour 2,064]

She is saying all the big mathematics guys like pythagoras were whitey.

 

They got peanuts with george washington carver.. what more do they want?

Well, it will come back around in gym class. And the shower afterward.

So either this has already happened or soon will. The same thing will be applied to the study of law. You know, that whole Latin thing probably makes black people feel icky.

 

Either that or one of the Kardashians is soon to start dating the latest rap sensation res ipsa.
