I posted on the "woke math" movement a couple of months ago with a link to the curriculum guide. Stating that there is a single answer to a math problem is "white" and therefore "racist." The Scientific Method is "white" and therefore "racist." It is an interesting document, albeit quite long. It is / has been adopted in multiple school districts, mostly in California, but also some states in the northeast.
