@ChayaDisotell [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : Bill Gates says math is racist, so #Woke math returns to California By Lance Takeo Izumi EXCERPT According to Williamson Evers, a former U.S. assistant secretary of education for policy, and Ze'ev Wurman, a former senior policy advisor at the U.S. Department of Education, trauma [URL redacted]

The first draft was widely criticized for politicizing math instruction by inserting 'environmental and social justice' into the math curriculum, having students solve 'problems that result in social inequalities,' and rejecting the notion that math is a 'neutral discipline.' Because of intense backlash, including an open letter signed by more than 1,200 mathematicians, scientists, and education leaders, the first draft was pulled back. But now, a second draft has been released and it is still filled with woke concepts and prescriptions. The second draft says that the goal of teaching math will be to 'promote racial justice.' Indeed, five of the 14 chapters of the framework are focused on equity, with the CDE saying that 'equity influences all aspects of this document.'" https://townhall.com/columnists/lanceizumi/2022/05/07/woke-math-returns-to-california-n2606895 #LiteralSchoolPublic #PolicyDiversityEquityAndInclusionDEI #MetaphorWarfareCultureLiberalEducation #TheoryIndividualismCompetitive
