The article pointed out that: > ...the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), which set in 2015 a goal to double the number of African American students taking calculus by 2025. Which would be a step towards improving educational opportunities for everyone. The new California standards are arguably going in the opposite direction. I find this to be a trend, that many pushes for "equity" in education seeks to achieve this by reducing the success of high achieving groups to match that of the low achieving groups, instead of figuring out how to get the low achieving groups to the level of the high achievers.
