Canadian School Teaches Africentric Math

Before political correctness, cultures had to be functional to expand. Totally dysfunctional cultures would flounder within their own boundaries until they were able to move forward — or until they were displaced. Now, things are different. Canada is importing Africentric math:

Nova Scotia’s Auburn Drive High School math teachers are skipping their previous eurocentric approach to teaching mathematics so black students will gain more interest in the subject, the CBC reported. Teachers are adopting an Afrocentric lens to teach mathematics, based on incorporating African history and culture to make math classes resonate with their students.

The idea is to get black students to take STEM classes, so that can take advantage of Affirmative Action to secure high-paying jobs.

One example of the new approach is using Egyptian pyramids to explain trigonometry.

According to some Afrocentric moonbats, blacks built the pyramids. Because Egypt is in Africa.

This lunacy is not new:

Temple University’s African Studies Chair Molefi Asante originally designed the Afrocentric movement in a book, “Afrocentricity: The Theory of Social Change,” published in 1980. He criticized the “Eurocentric” focus of education and instead encouraged academics to make lessons more relatable to African students. One example is teaching biology based on black biologist Ernest Just’s research over someone white, according to The American Prospect.

No doubt anyone in academia who fails to applaud this with sufficient enthusiasm will be denounced as a racist — the worst thing that could happen to a career.

For an idea of the inevitable effects of applying moonbattery and Affirmative Action to fields like math and engineering, readers are referred to the Bridge That Political Correctness Built (a.k.a. Diversity Bridge), which recently collapsed in Florida.
