Well of course the people that want to maintain and perpetuate the systems of oppression and hierarchies of gender and racial inequality are angry that children aren’t being beaten down with inherently racist white math and the persecution of heteronormative reading, but instead having their eyes opened to the mechanisms of tyrrany that prevent the real inheritors of this land, the good and righteous proletariat from flourishing in this nation. Somebody recently mentioned Poe’s law in here so I thought I’d give it a try.
What is “inherently racist white math”?
Eh, was trying to be funny, only achieved fail.
Seeing that I have seen people say exactly that for real… Good that you were not serious.
Ah. So has nothing to do with math. Nobody says “racist cars” when racists drive around and are racist to others. Racist math=/= racist math classes.
Schools should be pro education. Not pro-white or pro-black or pro queer. They should educate.
I agree.
Edit: Our difference in opinion is over what constitutes good and worthwhile education.
I don’t mind gender/sexuality being covered more in high school but at the lower levels, we need to focus on education only.
Hyward is a poor area filled with crime. If the kids don’t have a solid education they will not be able to break that cycle.
we need to focus on education only.
Absolutely, we gotta keep them unprepared for the rest. /s
We do not allow racism here. Rule 1, 1 day ban for racism.

Right, like no one expected math and reading scores to go up after spending money on a racism awareness program.
But it has the term “woke” in it, so it makes for good rage bait.
The scores went down. Since the school is struggling financially and is already behind, shouldn’t they be focusing on education? Wouldn’t that be a better use of 250K? and where did you get it was an awareness on racism? That isn’t the goal of the program.
They have an extremely bad attendance and got it up 20 %. They wanted the kids to feel safe there, which is where racism etc. came in.
In elementary school the main thing is to be with your peers anyway. A kid who’s socializing at that age is developing his brain.
