    It seems pretty heavy on the motivation to study math as a cultural defense if you are a minority.  But if it gets some to learn math that’s good.  I couldn’t tell whether, in all that curricula, there was much actual math being taught.  And I don’t see how it could be worthwhile to require it of any students who weren’t interested in it (like most white kids, probably).
