Lmaooo the only people who use that California talking point are people who have never been inside of a school in California. They aren’t cutting math classes they are offering alternatives to high level math courses like calculus, stats, and data science. Explain to me how that’s burdening anyone??

Some California schools cut advanced math classes because they weren’t diverse enough, or it was contributing to an educational gap, or some bullshit. Equity requires adding burden to someone, it may be in an attempt at fairness, but that doesn’t make it right.

Equality people, “Let’s fund these people who are objectively poor, they are disadvantaged and need it.”.
Equity people, “let’s fund people part of this group I can clearly identify by looking at them. They are likely to be disadvantaged.”
