Mathematics Association Declares Math Is Racist
 [Post-Millennial] The Mathematical Association of America released a statement Friday claiming that mathematicians should engage in “uncomfortable conversations” about race.It also called out the fact that the Department of Education launched an investigation into Princeton University after the university publicly condemned itself of being rife with racism "embedded in structures" of the university. The group says this action "weaponized" the statement from Princeton administration. "Hey, you can't do that!! Only WE can do that!" "As mathematicians, we notice patterns - this is something we are all trained to do. We bring these Executive actions to our community’s attention for several reasons: we see the pattern of science being ignored and the pattern of violence against our colleagues that give voice to race and racism," the statement continues. Wait a sec, I thought noticing patterns was racist?
