You would have to be fucking retarded to believe Frederick Douglass was anything but African-American. The man is a well recorded figure in American history. Fuck you people are stupid.

I was referring to myself

Why does it need to be defended? It's a fucking arithmetic problem.

Are you bleeding hearts now anti-arithmetic because it can be used to quantify things which are scary and might hurt someone?

and you're a fucking idiot.

Social Studies is nothing but Social Engineering. That's some Marxist bullshit and it has been happening in the faces of everyone. I have no issue with Black History month, but we need to put far less emphasis on social concerns and more on the actual education of our youth. Want to know what they should teach children about how/why people are different? "They just fucking are, now do your math homework."

So, if it doesn't need defending why are you defending it?

It's times like this I realize there is no longer any hope in humanity itself. People just don't seem to care in thinking about what they are doing anymore.

Be it a terrible act or worse; defending a terrible act. Downplaying is done on purpose for further outraging people. The person who came up with these math questions knew what was going to happen.

This sole act makes me realize "it's" been out of humanity's hands for quite some time, since they dropped and abandoned "it".

No point in trying to talk any reason to people, where the majority is being thoughtless on purpose. From invading countries for no real reason, spreading racism, feeding fear, turning innocent men/women into villains, making heroes out evil people, etc. etc.

It's no longer worth talking about it, since most of humanity has chosen to be on their own and as wild as they can be. There is a big difference between someone who does not know and someone who does not want to know.

And those who do not want to know further cause harm and destruction, but are not punished.

Well, you can't say you haven't been warned or that someone didn't try.

Macamus Prime, out.

900.



Indeterminate. I believe you meant to say that they divided 56 babies equally among them, but that's not what you actually said. You said "raped equally", but there's no real equality below all 8 raping each baby at least once. At that point all babies are equal in having had every soldier.
LOL +1 for math.

EDIT: This reminds me of myself in high school. "That might not be what you intended to ask, but it is what you asked."

That's easy. Frederick only picked 7 oranges which is probably why he got 14 beatings a week. There isn't enough information provided to determine how many baskets of cotton he picked but I'm sure after all the beatings he did a lot better than he did with the oranges.

I cannot believe they were so insensitive. They should have used this instead:

A woman is raped by 4 men. If she receives 28 lashes due to being a slut, how many lashes did she receive for each man she let rape her slutty body.

I agree completely. However, making stupid questions like these merely interfere even more with a proper education; now the attention is all on the phrasing of the questions rather than on the underlying mathematics.

EDIT: Anyway, if they were going to do this, it should have been something like:
"Frederick only picked seven bales of cotton when his master expected thirteen. If Frederick gets five lashes per bale not picked, how many times should Frederick kick his former master's fat ass once Frederick is emancipated assuming that three lashes equals two ass whoopin's?" See, it's not only a harder problem, now it has a happy ending.

I guess it never occurred to those reporting the story or discussing the story to actually look at the demographics for Beaver Creek Elementary School especially given the smart ass comment in the OP title:

American Indian 5
Asian 71
Black 286
Hispanic 746
White 54
Two or more races 37

It is a Title 1 school and hardly a candidate for a school that would have any kind of "South is going to rise again" agenda.

One math teacher could theoretically own hundres of slaves.

Whether the Teacher is "Liberal" or not is moot. I suspect though, that the Teacher(s) in question were not intentionally being Racist, but were indeed being stupid in an attempt to make this integration.

I agree with you but the "beating" question really makes me go WTF was that teacher thinking...

I have seen a lot of classes integrating or cross teaching locally, I don't think they should stop doing it during certain classes or subjects but a little common sense goes a long way in situations like this.

I can't wait to see the sex ed/math questions:

If Jill has 15 condoms and Bobby, Mark, and John run a train on Jill, how many turns can each boy take?

If little Johnies mother makes $25 for every cock she sucks and she can suck 12 cocks a day, how much money will she make in a week?

If her pimp takes 40%, how much money is she then left with?

Good catch. It's still stupid to phrase these questions thus. These children need to have education beaten into them, not the history of slavery. If they get the idea that slavery is highly important to them today, they are unlikely to spend as much effort on actual academic subjects. For that matter, any phrasing that draws attention to the phrasing rather than the underlying math is counterproductive, but especially provocative phrasing is especially counterproductive.

Slavery math - politically correct
Twin towers victims - outrage

You guys got your conservative panties in a knot over a muslim community center 4 blocks from ground zero.

Maybe I would have a little more respect if there was some consistancy in your hate.

I figured the demographics were that way, it sounds like the teachers were trying to get black kids interested in actually doing school work so they picked a subject they thought would catch their attention. The funny part is [just going by names] the man complaining is probably a white guy.

This is where they will point out the different timelines on calendars. See that makes it ok for them to be overly sensitive to things since it happened recently. Silly liberal. When will you learn its all about what they think is right or wrong based on their ideology.

Title is spot on considering some southern administrator knowing the demographic of the school thought it was completely appropriate to teach this.

Wow, that's stupid.

I know there are many fine teachers. But too often it seems these type of 'WTH were they thinking?' type stories involves school teachers and administrators. Too many examples of a complete lack of common sense.

More details are emerging. It would be interesting if the teacher was black.

A social studies lesson on Frederick Douglass prompted a Beaver Ridge Elementary School teacher to use slavery beatings to teach math concepts on a homework assignment, Gwinnett Schools officials say.

"These particular questions were an attempt at incorporating some of what students had been discussing in social studies with their math activity," said Sloan Roach, Gwinnett Schools spokeswoman. "One teacher developed the questions, another made the copies and it was used in four classes."

One of the teachers involved in the incident is Hispanic, Braxton said. The district would not release the teachers' names or races. All involved are being questioned about their role and are still employed with the district, Roach said.

Records show that of Beaver Ridge's 1,261 students, nearly 60 percent are Hispanic; 28 percent, African-American; 5.3 percent, Asian; and 4 percent, white.
