Too fricking bad. Non-white, non-cisheteropatriachal types should make up their own math and go to town with it.

Someone needs to meme Tommy Lee Jones as math saying “I don’t care”

Because math doesn’t care about any of that shite.

I was on an international trip and asked someone late 50's and from S. Africa if they were familiar with Led Zeppelin.
They were not. At all.

I thought to myself, "how could this be?". Zero awareness of who Led Zeppelin is.

Then, I considered the context and location of their life. No awareness of Led Zeppelin IV. Wow.

While this does not explain math education, I type it to reflect on context, location (ie, perspectives) and how different they may be from "average". It matters. May not agree (at all), but it opened my eyes to at least explain why.

No Kashmir? Wow.

Unless I'm missing something, don't Cis and Hetero mean the same thing? Are they cancelling each other out?

My normal, female daughter got a math minor, just for grins. Does this disqualify her from receiving the math oppression reparations check?

A) I’m sure the data doesn’t back up his “research”

B) what on earth would possess someone to do such a specific, bullshite “study”

I don’t know what advanced, arithmetic or mathematical philosophies ever emerged out of Africa or Latin America.

I suspect thousands of years ago, all that stuff was developed by the people for the people.

Data doesn’t matter for these “lived experiences” obsessed fricks. In fact, they claim objectivity is impossible via empirical research. All we have are frameworks to broadcast marginalized voices as an effort to disrupt structural power systems of oppression.

It’s really concerning, honestly. This kind of research is very heavy in the social sciences, so your sociologists, education researchers, and psychologists are expected to conform to the paradigm or perish.

White heterosexual conservatives males are not going into these inner city schools and teaching math to these kids. It’s mostly black women who got their teaching degrees from schools like Southern and SUNO.

But they can’t figure out why blacks kids can’t compete in math.

"I apply my framework and research findings to argue how undergraduate mathematics education operates as a white, cisheteropatriarchal space that limits learning opportunities affirming of queer of color identities and experiences. I conclude by re-imagining undergraduate mathematics education with structural disruptions that advance justice for learners marginalized across intersections of race, gender, and sexuality," Leyva said.
