  Did you actually read that?

    I vouched for you, reasonable question, I got a few pages in and expected something reasonable. The first example set of white supremacy in math read as extremely tenuous by linking pedagogical techniques to overt white supremicist philosophy. An example that stuck out to me because I also think there are better ways was the teaching of maths as a linear sequence - seems much more clearly the result of an education pipeline focused on producing physicists and engineers than white supremacy. Readers wondering how else you would do it; more like a tree structure, some pre-reqs make sense but there is an astounding volume of useful introductory math that is approachable once you have mastered arithmetic and are comfortable performing algebra. Logic, digital logic, linear algebra, probability, statistics (we can call that three things though given that two sets of two examples are closely related). Loads of stuff
