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).
