Mathematics association declares math is racist

Don't say I didn't warn you:

Not only was it authentic Zimbabwe gibberish, it was expressed with stupidity and ignorance we have seen so often in this day and age.  Proof positive we are devolving.

I didn't think it was racist, but I knew it was strange to learn that i²= -1.

Even stranger that the imaginary is required in the real world...

These moronic students must be forcibly shown the error of their ways. The teachers don't have to call them out for being stupid, but their ignorance has to be confronted in very strong terms. Patronizing them by trying to understand their "culture" does not help them, the students, one bit.
If these dopey students waste more class time for other students, they should  be expelled and possibly sent back to where they came from.
People who can't or refuse to understand basic scientific principles have no place in colleges and universities.

On the contrary - they are now running them.

That i is unreal, man....it's imaginary!

For some strange reason, I had to swallow that before I could learn about Eli the Iceman.

That's something I never expected to hear from mathematicians. Who is more rooted in reality and anal than them?

[sneakypete]

What they are fighting is simple nature. They are fighting 'reality' itself.
 

@240B

Of course they are. They have to because Communism itself is against both reality and the nature of mankind. If they were to suddenly insist on reality,they would be out of business.

I would bet a lot of money that the math teachers who are trying to educate students like the morons in the video know that what they, the students, are spouting is insane gibberish.
There is no "white" math, or "white" science, or "white" engineering. There are only basic math and science principles that apply to everybody of whatever color or ethnicity.
I'm sure the very liberal math teachers who have to hear this dreck from incredibly stupid students, who obviously shouldn't be attending institutions of higher learning, know this.
But fear of losing their jobs and being called a racist colonialist (the worst thing any liberal can be called...worse than murderer or rapist) prevents many of them from saying as much.

Next they'll insist "black blood" is different than "white blood."

Hey hey Edith, maybe back in our own warm bed, things may be a little better than they was before. You know what with this new colored blood in me, you know what I mean?

Dr. Wynell Thatcher: Mr. Bunker, it took us 200 years to get equal rights. You only been black 4 days.

Eli. Another electrical guy. Years back a neighborhood guy went to DeVry University
in Chicago. Not sure it was a university back then.

He told that to me.

I was an Organic Chem Major, then after a #2 Draft lottery #, and the Navy needed Electronics Techs, so 4 yrs later I changed to Technology with a Major in Computer HW. I then got picked up as a NASA Sub-Contractor for Integration, Test and CM on the JSC Mission Control Center Front-End Processors. Other than working my way thru school as a Transformer Engineer, on Downhole and Medical Xformers, I never did work hardware.
