    Investing in Africa is a blunder. Unless you are willing to go full colonialist, the natives will f*ck things up.

    they are going to at that already happened.

    It's in your school it's in your colleges it's in your entertainment it is in the company you work for it is in every company you buy products from. It's already happened.

    Within schools it's an insidious government plot. But within companies and entertainment it is tolerated because it's not costing anybody anything right now. When it starts costing the company to have these work tapes the company will either abandon them or go under. And when that happens because government is downstream from culture in this regard at least the schools will be washed of it because it's not tolerated anywhere else.

    Before we go off on some big, expensive 'mission' in AFRICA, I really wish Joe's handlers would fix this migration mess right here at home FIRST. But not even Trump was smart enough to seal the border SHUT for a mandatory cooling-off period!

    Hmm, I live in USA. Not Canada.

    So, in your view then, 2+2 is NOT 4? Because that equation is objective?
    What is your point exactly with that link? If not that 2+2 = 4.

    So explain how they say 2+2=4 is racist.
    I don't follow your posting. It seems you don't quite understand how math works?

    If they do what you claim, how come we rank as high as we do in the world?
    upload_2022-12-18_13-30-54.png

    You're making claims that don't hold water.

    BTW, our weakest schools are in lower- and middle-income neighborhoods. If your kid go to schools in higher-income neighborhood, their schools are some of the best in the world.

    Your claim about teachers instructing on their personal agenda is nonsense.

    Thanks to people trashing teachers with lies, we're not getting quality STEM instructors. Why teach school when you're going to bet attacked by toads?

    Hard to know if you're serious or just trolling. 'Math is racist' is a thing, and has been for quite some time. Even Newsweek has noticed:

    ...The [CRT] framework claims that "mathematical knowledge has been appropriated by Western culture" and that "math has been and continues to be used to oppress and marginalize people and communities of color."

    Seattle math teacher Shraddha Shirude is a believer, using ethnic studies in her high school course Mathematics for Liberation to tell students that the subject is "used to oppress people." She says she enjoys teaching through the ethnic studies lens because it dismantles the "toxic" white culture of math classes...

    Four million teachers in the country and how many say math is racist?

    LOL, not that college theory program CRT again.
    For crying out loud. That silly political football has been punted out of here.

    Explain how it's being told that 2+2 = 4 is racist.

    All you've shown is how a few teachers think the way the subject is taught may not be all inclusive.
    Not that the core of mathematics is racist.

    LOL. I guess you can't address it, so ad hom is all you can muster up. That is above your standards. Congrats.

    Do you have more than one-off examples? Of course not.

    One thing... you hired Shraddha Shirude. No math teacher I know claims math is racist, nor would they hire someone to teach math who says so. CRT, a Marxist theory of race, is not part of the history curriculum, so you're blowing smoke.

    Interesting that you talk about trolling when anyone who knows about public education wonders about people who write nonsense like you do.

    According to our CRT professors in this thread. 3 maybe?
    And 1 poster found 1 in Canada. That is probably included in the 3.

    Blowing smoke. Are you saying Newsweek fabricated a fraudulent story with fake principals? Any evidence for that?
    Well. That settles it. One should always gauge credible reporting based on what LangleyMan knows. Thanks for clearing that up.

    Clueless BS. Study this about how we rate...

    Try being constructive. How can we improve our schools?

    How about you dig up some after the scamdemic ;) We were just average in 2018, but I blame that on average to below average instructors ;)

    You can say it all you want about the DNC.
    Has nothing at all to do with the millions of math teachers in the country.

    Student centered funding - i.e., the money follows the student. Whether they're educated at school (public or private) or home. When parents yank their kid out of School A, the money follows the kid to wherever he's enrolled next. Whether it's School B, a private school, charter school or home school.

    In most states, education accounts for roughly half the entire budget. Once parents pull their kids from failing schools and take those dollars with them, that'll be impetuous for real reform.

    No one is imposing anything on anyone except for atheists imposing their hatred of another person's beliefs...which really don't have any effect on anyone.

    Teachers unions have made it their mission to teach hatred of America with CRT and teach cultist sexual confusion with transgender silliness WHILE EXCLUDING PARENTS FROM THE CONVERSATION. I am with you about teachers being underpaid. All the money being thrown at schools finds its way to the union and political contributions. About 20 years ago I was recruited by the San Diego school system. They were awash in music, art, English and other "fluffy" degrees but had no one to teach math or science. I had no teaching credits but I did have a BSEE. I taught high school Physics for two years. Because so many students had failed mathematics, standards were lowered outrageously. Essentially, I had to teach Physics without mathematics. It was all demonstration. It was very sad. You're right about pay. I went back to industry because of the low pay.

    Trump was the last President that took guarding our borders seriously.

    Yes, the invasion from the south will get even worse.
