San Francisco's decision to delay Algebra for all students until the 9th grade in the name of "equity," is a really bad one. Black parents didn't ask for this, and this strategy won't achieve the equity that they're looking for.

Hard to accept: A lot of "anti-woke" people believe that being woke is all just a lot of bad decisions like this. This belief is due to framing by the far-right: any bad policy is "woke." I help them understand that Black families don't want this and didn't ask for it.

Here's how Nigeria introduces a 12 year old to Binary, Octal, and Hexadecimal:

@mekkaokereke imagine how dangerous it must be to be a black male teacher in the USA. As soon as the cops arrive in response to a school shooting you know who they will shoot first
