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.

@mekkaokereke Oy. My city tried to do the same but parents freaked out. (It remains pretty hostile to math acceleration -- by which of course I mean "math acceleration for people who can't pay for Russian School of Math" -- but I guess there was a limit to how far people were willing to go with that.)
