Labor Theory of Math
DEI math teaching is based on the labor theory of math: your effort, not achievement, is what counts in K-12 grading, and the demand that students get the right answer is white supremacy.
If so, it takes white supremacy to build a bridge or study physics.
It's striking how, during the George Floyd/COVID years, teachers' unions agitated to eliminate standards, and universities seized on the trend, doing much the same. The claim was that testing was racist; the reality was that standardized testing exposed the rot in our educational system.
