So, Apparently Math is Racist Now

Rochelle Gutierrez, a math education instructor at the University of Illinois, released a detailed anthology which suggests the problem solving subject is racist.
Gutierrez, whose university profile states her curriculum focuses on 'equity issues in mathematics education (and in particular) how race, class, and language affect teaching and learning,' has said the practice as a whole 'operates as whiteness.'
'Who gets credit for doing and developing mathematics, who is capable in mathematics, and who is seen as part of the mathematical community is generally viewed as White,'
Minorities 'have experienced microaggressions from participating in math classrooms… (where people are) judged by whether they can reason abstractly,' she wrote.

“Whiteness” as a social construct - which includes Asians, Indians, and Jews - or in the literal sense?

This is the exact opposite of what I would think? Not once in college did I have a math or physics professor that was caucasian and I never thought anything of it.
