The title of the full doc is Math Ethnic Studies framework.
In that context, there is actually a lot of good stuff in there behind the Leninist rhetoric.
It is about math in society, rather than math itself.
Big difference.
Hate the Leninist rhetoric tho.

The framework reeks of bad faith and massive downside potential to compromise learning of actual math in favor of officially approved doctrine about math history.

If this is targeted at math class rather than social studies, it is very messed up.

It’s messed up, period, even worse with social studies context, with math itself conveniently missing and being tried for high crimes in absentia in front of a jury of kids who don’t even know the basics of what is being problematized. Bogeyman critical pedagogy.
At least in Social Studies, it's actually in the field as opposed to meta to it.
But yeah, thinking about it from a Social Studies standpoint, the bad aspects are more likely to find a receptive audience.
I expect it will be largely ignored, though, except for some outrage.
