So @elonmusk, math reveals devastating impact of genocidal rape: 100,000 victims x 15 affected individuals = 1.5 MILLION traumatized. Prioritize support & justice for survivors? #GenocidalRape #Trauma #MathForSocialJustice

"Math isn't inherently racist, but its teaching & application can be. Leftist critiques highlight Eurocentrism, systemic inequality, unequal access & lack of cultural relevance. Let's transform math ed to promote social justice & inclusivity! #MathForSocialJustice"

I came to highlight a great article by Dr. Gutiérrez in which she outlined dangers in maintaining an achievement-gap focus and discussed a new research agenda for mathematics education. 🧵(1/10)

As of 8am on 10/31 in San Diego:
407 children are occupying 407 beds at Rady's Children's Hospital.
Wait time at the ER is 6 hrs.
My kids attend school <15 min from @radychildrens. My 3rd gr is the only 1 in his class wearing a mask.

That's an interesting scale, @nytimes! Good example of how rounding can introduce errors. #MathForSocialJustice

I love so much about this: that folks are thinking about #MathForSocialJustice, that bringing in speakers about the topic is possible, and that there are now so many folks who do this work!

If I wanted to find a speaker about math for social justice, who/where would I go?

Great example - key question for any percentage: that's the percentage of what? In this case "wheat exports" is being misinterpreted as "wheat grown".

Actual headline: CDC data through Dec. show boosters offer fewer gains for those under 65.
Alt title (based on numbers buried several paragraphs down): boosters cut death rates for those 50-64 by 75%, less than for older adults.

So much #MathForSocialJustice embedded in this story - stats, estimates, algorithms taken as neutral and objective..

A Black woman in Indianapolis had her home appraised twice at $110,000 and $125,000. She suspected she was being lowballed. So she hid her culturally distinct decor and had her friend’s white husband stand in for a third appraisal.
Came in at $259,000. indystar.com/story/money/202…

Great question for a #MathForSocialJustice class:
What's misleading about the original @cnn tweet?
What's misleading about @PatFinelli's retweet?
(Don't know about CNN, but the replies make it clear that Pat knows what's wrong with his.)
