One could make similar criticisms of the majority white parents, given all the "progress" in education. The one who can, move to "better" districts, go to "good" private schools, or homeschool. The rest will suffer what they must.
Q: If it takes Janiqeuira 2 hours to walk 4 miles until she crosses paths with John who rode his bike 4 miles in 20 minutes, how long will it take John and Janiqueria to go 6 miles further?
A: Janiqeuria will travel six miles in 30 minuets on johns bike and John is racist.
If you're looking at actual data, then it hasn't been updated since 2010. The Success Academy shows that it's the Democrats and their sclerotic institutions that are keeping black Americans down.
Uneducated workers are almost useless, fit only for unskilled labor. Undisciplined workers are good for nothing. These programs are not producing productive citizens, they're producing "activists".
This. So tired of 'capatilist masters want us to be dumb' idea. No, y'all just are dumb. Capitalist masters wish you were smarter, but burning more money so far hasn't really raised a smarter populace.
The flaw in the logic is "capitalist" masters. Plenty of capitalists in the world. They are trying to make money. Nobody but a lefty ever tried to be my master.
These policies are designed to create helpless people. People who need to vote left, because without big government handouts they will starve. Fear and ignorance are the slave chains of the modern world.
Part of me doesn't want to even know, lest I become poisoned with stupidity. I NEVER thought there was a "wrong" way to do math, until I encountered common core. I can't even begin to comprehend how retarded "ethnomathematics" are, I am afraid to even find out.
Mathematics is the language of the universe. It literally transcends humanity itself. It's pervasive and crucial to our understanding of the universe as it describes how our reality is woven. There is nothing more objective that mathematics, period. I have no idea how race shoehorns its way into this and I don't want to. Factoring or attributing anything racial to math can be categorically dismissed out of hand.
Jupiter has a layer of atmosphere that's the right temperature for building cloud cities. We could start siphoning off the nitrogen to start tearforming Venus and mars.
Common Core is this: Somebody said "you know the smart kids in math are reading ahead, intuitively getting it, and coming up with their own tricks and shortcuts that we aren't teaching them while the dumb kids can't do 7 + 5 and we have to deal with their discipline issues."
Educators: We must now make all that part of the curriculum. Being ahead is mandatory, it's mandatory to use those smart kids shortcuts. So now the dumb kid has to figure out where 10 comes into 7 + 5, parents can't help if they are even around. The teachers are one chapter ahead of the students because it's not the way they learned. And they cannot discipline to keep an attentive classroom.
Dude look at that guy. No one should be listening to anyone that looks like a homeless white guy pretending to be a black Jamaican educator turned construction worker
This is the worst kind of racism. Provide worse opportunities of success for Black children, because the Dems think they're too stupid for conventional maths.
In Apartheid South-Africa they purposefully denied real education for Blacks to keep them out of power. Just sayin.
I think it's wholly bullshit but I will try to give you the most neutral summary of it as proposed as possible so that when you hate it too, you can do it with good knowledge of it:
An attempt to teach math in ways that reflect the ancestry of the students, because, allegedly, math as it's taught traditionally is the way of oppressors. It focuses less on addition, subtraction, multiplication and division which they allege can be done with calculators and computers, and focuses on applying it to different cultural situations. Examples include using it to highlight politically relevant statistics such as units on "buying a house when black or brown," or the history of math with a special emphasis on marginalized group's contributions so that under-performing groups may find math more relevant to themselves.
It also includes topics more relevant to language than math itself, such as simply knowing what the numbers are called in other languages (one through ten are special in English, with numbers after that generally being some variant of the mains; in French, you say 80-89 as "four twenty" through "four twenty nine") for "cultural" concepts of numbers. It can also include such things as how fingers are used for finger counting in different cultures.
Most are pretty common sensical when you see them, like in Europe/Japan the thumb is 1 and the pinky is 5; in the US the index finger is 1, the thumb is 5.
But in some cultures they count by having the thumb on one knuckle per finger, so you get up to 12 on one hand.
China indicates some numbers beyond 5 with various hand gestures in communication. Like the pinky and thumb out 'rock on' style is "6." Closed fist is either zero or ten depending on the thumb position (I forget which is which).
But those are electives a person can choose to study depending on their interests later in their education when they've cleared middle school fundamental skills of reading, writing and arithmetic; math is a non-negotiable core concept everyone needs.
Even if you only graduate middle school, you should be able to read a newspaper; write a summary of it in your own words; add, subtract, multiply and divide decimals, fractions and negative numbers. Knowing how Brits or Asians signal numbers is nowhere near as important.
Doesnāt matter what you teach the home is where the foundation is set. People expect the state and school to make their kids smart and outstanding citizens...sorry wonāt happen but they will make them communists
Exactly. Most of these children don't have anyone teaching them to count as toddlers. Or teaching them the ABCs. Or anything of value really, in early childhood. They start school behind in pre k and it gets worse from there.
Is it possible that the devil is retarded? All his followers are retarded. Their leaders, "cough Biden!!! Cough" is brain damaged. Are we going to let these pants shitting retards tear down America?
I mean, it's pretty dumb and racist how they they automatically suppose mathematics (which is a universal language) even has so much to do with "whiteness". I mean, many of the key concepts like numbers used today were invented be the Arabs, Indians... And many cultures have developed these mathematical principles independently of one other, like the Mayas in Mexico, because they're universal.
what the fuck is ethnomathematics? how does it help somebody calculate the standard deviation, or the cosine theta of force applied on an angle, or the indefinite integral of sin inverse of x, or the escape velocity. What the fuck is ethnomathematics?
Closing "Achievement/Opportunity" gaps is a Western way of thinking about education. It's linear and views students as lacking something and needing to be turned into some ideal, which is defined by white supremacy.
People complain about "systemic racism" and then this guy says closing achievement/opportunity gaps is white supremacist?
2 apples + 2 oranges (does not) = 4 hahahahahahahaha š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£ that's literally one of their arguments. They don't understand abstraction or language at all
Great example. In the case it does equal 4 fruit, but more generally we'd say something like that with non-compatible units can't be simplified further. Math does have ways of dealing with that.
It's always annoying to see someone try to shoehorn math into meaning something it doesn't, and then complaining that it doesn't work.
Nigganometry ain't working.
What I don't get is how black parents are fine with this. Zero self respect.
One could make similar criticisms of the majority white parents, given all the "progress" in education. The one who can, move to "better" districts, go to "good" private schools, or homeschool. The rest will suffer what they must.
I shouldnāt laugh but I did.... :D
Wtf is ethnomathematics
sad honk
Sadder accompanying honk

And the bike is stolen. And John has a concussion.
Severely underrated comment.
buhahahaha
It's like ebonics.
This is accurate. I think what they are really looking for is a new language
THIS
Think Ebonics, only sillier...
And we know that Thomas Sowell is good at math and has proven with charter schools that blacks are just as good at math as any other kid.
If you're looking at actual data, then it hasn't been updated since 2010. The Success Academy shows that it's the Democrats and their sclerotic institutions that are keeping black Americans down.
Read Black Rednecks vs White Liberals.
NASA had several black engineers before civil rights act in 60's.
easiest way to make a compliant set of slave workers.
Uneducated workers are almost useless, fit only for unskilled labor. Undisciplined workers are good for nothing. These programs are not producing productive citizens, they're producing "activists".

Or BLM rioters every year for the next generation
No one escapes the plantation that way.

I have seen 32s under a lesabre. Why are we not kicking it on Jupiter by now.
Cause itās a gas planet? And I assume racism fits somewhere in my retarded answer.
Jupiter has a layer of atmosphere that's the right temperature for building cloud cities. We could start siphoning off the nitrogen to start tearforming Venus and mars.
No we canāt. Ethnomath is moar important bigot. Why do you hate black children learning fake math?

You know what they obviously do not teach in ethnomathematics?
Ratio, proportion and percent.
Underrated comment
also proofs.
They may fail at maff, but their Triggernometry scores are through the roof.
All they need to know is weight measurements..gram...ounce...ect
I don't even wanna know what 'ethnomathematics' is.
Dude look at that guy. No one should be listening to anyone that looks like a homeless white guy pretending to be a black Jamaican educator turned construction worker
2+2=5. Or 3. Amsoc.
Well, that was the goal . . .
This is the worst kind of racism. Provide worse opportunities of success for Black children, because the Dems think they're too stupid for conventional maths.

Hold on a figgity flying fuck. Do i even want to know what ethnomathematics is, or what its meant to accomplish ?

I hate it. Ethnomath is exactly why weāre not driving dope ass moon buggies on the moon and have elevators to space.
How in the hell can there be more than one way to count on your hands? I know you're just the messenger but fuck me...that's just ridiculous.
Most are pretty common sensical when you see them, like in Europe/Japan the thumb is 1 and the pinky is 5; in the US the index finger is 1, the thumb is 5.
But in some cultures they count by having the thumb on one knuckle per finger, so you get up to 12 on one hand.

Wouldn't how other cultures count be more suitable for social studys or something?
Thanks for explaining that to me. Yes, what a waste of time.
sooo brainwashing for them to hate white people. never saw it coming.
Thank u. Screenshotted. Its like a mixture of math with biased history. As if the way math was taught in schools didnt suck enough.
Keep them uneducated. Keep them powerless. Keep them on the plantation.
I was today years old when I heard about ethnomathmatics.
Sounds like you were one of it's pioneers ;)
The soft racism of low expectations.
Doesnāt matter what you teach the home is where the foundation is set. People expect the state and school to make their kids smart and outstanding citizens...sorry wonāt happen but they will make them communists

Ok. I will bite. What the fuck is ethnomathematics?
Ok. I googled it. Steaming pile of mind virus bullshit. Got it.
could it ever have been otherwise?

Blackgebra and TalcumXculas aināt working either.
Liberal policies in a nutshell.
I don't know what that is, but I assume it begins with how to tally me bananas and ends with how to use a scale.
What the bleep is ethnomathematics?
The absolute fuck is ethnomathematics?
The left will be the death of this great country.
The goal is to sabotage and dumb down successful students so that everyone is on the same level.
2+2=fuck whitey
