https://thenewamerican.com/oregon-and-bill-gates-lead-the-radical-lefts-assault-on-math/ The establishment left's war on education continues in Oregon and with their billionaire elitist scum Bill Gates helping the lead the way into further destroying children's minds by going after mathematics because they think in their delusional minds that math is RACIST!!! yes RACIST here are some excerpts from the new american showing just how nuts this all is: Parents will be grieving the little Einsteins who will never be if atrocious ideas, such as that mathematics “uphold capitalist, imperialist, and racist views,” continue to be embraced by educators and school administrators in America.
According to Nation and State, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is at the forefront of funding new initiatives designed to root out racism in the sciences. The curriculum from the group A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction states that “asking students to show their work and find the right answer is an inherently racist practice.” The Gates Foundation is listed as the organization’s sole donor.
Not surprisingly, Oregon is following California’s lead by pushing far-left ideologies and implementing radical curricula, aimed at both teachers and children. On February 5, the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) sent its math educators an invitation to participate in the California-based online Pathway to Math Equity Micro-Course. Launching February 25, the online course is a creation of the San Mateo (California) County Office of Education, the San Mateo County Community College District, and the California Partnership for Math and Science Education, among other groups. This “virtual micro-course for professionals looking for a deeper dive into equity work” will teach educators the “key tools for engagement to develop strategies to improve equitable outcomes for Black, Latinx, and multilingual students.”Under the pretense of advancing equity and inclusivity, the course is tailored exclusively to children of specific ethnicities. It is steeped in academic jargon intended to confuse parents and educators so they may not question the enormity of the changes to standard math curriculum.The course A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction furthermore embraces principles of critical race theory developed by academics who believe that “critical praxis in the classroom involves a continuous, self-reflective cycle between theory and action.” The toolkit features “5 Strides on the Path to Math Equity”: Dismantling Racism in Mathematics Instruction; Fostering Deep Understanding; Creating Conditions to Thrive; Connecting Critical Intersections; and Sustaining Equitable Practices. These “strides” ensure that educators will be able “to navigate the individual and collective journey from equity to antiracism.”
The framework also teaches that white supremacy culture in mathematics shows up in classrooms when there is:
- The focus on getting the “right” answer
- Independent practice is valued over teamwork or collaboration
- “Real-world math” is valued over math in the real world
- Students are tracked (into courses/pathways and within the classroom)
- Participation structures reinforce dominant ways of being.
The program joins scores of new rules and regulations promoting progressive curricula and teacher training to advance the Left’s goal of transforming core tenets of American K-12 education.
Earlier this month, The New American reported on the Illinois State Board of Education’s approval of Culturally Responsive Teaching and Leading Standards. On February 17, the state Joint Committee on Administrative Rules ratified the standards that are scheduled to replace current teacher-training guidelines in 2025. The criteria states that “culturally responsive” educators must “critically think about the institutions in which they find themselves, working to reform these institutions whenever and wherever necessary.” In other words, educators will become “responsive” not to the “three Rs” but to a host of highly politically charged issues, teaching leftist dogma such as the idea that widespread, systemic racial and gender discrimination exist and are the result of long-enduring systems of societal and cultural oppression.
Unfortunately, Republican opposition wasn’t great enough to sway the vote in the direction of maintaining curriculum not focused on race and gender. Amanda Elliott, executive director of legislative affairs for the Illinois state board, attempted to soften the impact of the overtly radical, progressive requirements by asserting that “the rules are for educator preparation programs, not aimed at school districts…. And it’s not about the personally-held beliefs or values of teachers that may be in the classroom, but making sure that they are welcoming to all students.” However, those wishing to teach in Illinois who disagree with the ideology of these standards will not be certified. Such drastic measures inevitably guarantee a compliant workforce of educators and staff programmed to teach leftist thinking.
As posted by the Tatum Report, at the East Side Community School in Manhattan, the principal has asked parents to “reflect” on their “whiteness.” The school has distributed to parents and teachers literature that extols “white traitors’’ who “dismantle institutions.” A schedule of “The 8 White Identities” implemented by the school ranges from “White Supremacist’’ to “White Abolitionist.”(incredible garbage indeed and my message to parents in America and Canada is to be involved in your child's education as much as possible and educate yourself on what is relaly going on:my note)
The Canadian left's war on law abiding gun owners continues while they let actual gun crimes go unpunished with reduced penalties showing their hypocrisy and double standards yet again they favour punishing lawful gun owners in this country for doing nothing wrong meanwhile gang bangers in Toronto get away with theri actual crimes of murder and illegal gun smuggling here are some excerpts from spencerfernando.com: At a certain point, it becomes painfully obvious that a government is driven solely by ideology, rather than facts.
And in the treatment of law-abiding Canadian gun owners, that is exactly what the Liberals are doing.
We have seen over and over again that the overwhelming majority of gun crime in Canada is perpetrated by criminals using illegal firearms.
By contrast, there is almost no crime committed by law-abiding gun owners, who are probably the safest people to be around in the entire country, since they can protect both themselves and those around them.After all, if guns in the possession of Canadian gun owners was such a big threat, then where is all the violence from that group?
By contrast, we see violence repeatedly committed by gangs and criminals using illegal guns.
What a shock, criminals don’t follow the law!
Yet, rather than focus on protecting Canadians from criminals, the Liberals repeatedly choose to ban more guns, which threatens to criminalize law-abiding people.
Meanwhile, the Liberals are simultaneously reducing sentences for actual gun crime.
Here’s what Alberta Justice Minister Kaycee Madu said:
“While Ottawa’s new justice bill (Bill C-22) contains some reasonable measures, I am deeply concerned about the decision to gut tough sentencing provisions for gun crimes.
“Ottawa’s draft law removes mandatory prison sentences for serious crimes such as illegal possession of a loaded handgun, robbery with a firearm, and possession of a firearm obtained through crime.
“Removing tough, mandatory penalties for actual gun crimes undermines the very minority communities that are so often victimized by brazen gun violence. I also find it disingenuous for Ottawa to exploit a genuine issue like systemic racism to push through their soft-on-crime bills.
“For the federal government to gut sentences for real gun crimes just days after scapegoating duly-licensed, law-abiding firearms owners (Bill C-21) is especially rich.
“Once again, Ottawa appears to be going soft on the criminals who perpetuate real gun violence while symbolically targeting law-abiding Canadians.”
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
What the Liberals are doing to law-abiding Canadians is disgraceful, and their ideological approach on gun crime will make this country less safe, make life easier for criminals, and further demonize those who have done nothing wrong.
(the insanity of these leftists in both articles is something else isn't it? whether it is dumbing down kids through toxic identity politics by demonizing math or going after law abiding gun owners in Canada because they would rather target them than actual criminals because of muh systemic racism card they pull all the time to justify their tyranny on the rest of us)
