This week, Malini and Oren delve into a thought-provoking discussion surrounding the controversial assertion that "math is racist." The conversation was ignited by a recent court decision that overturned a prior determination deeming a math proficiency test for teachers as discriminatory. Our hosts navigate through the intricacies of this issue, exploring themes such as destreaming, the role of whiteboards in education, and the broader implications of what some perceive as the "dumbing down" of society. Join us as we unravel the complexities of this debate and invite you to share your thoughts: Do you believe that math can be inherently biased?

We want your questions! Future episodes will feature a new segment, Rounds Table, where Malini and Dr Amitay will answer your questions, discuss your comments, and explore your ideas.
