Segregation has gone from the bane of Progressive thinking to becoming the very core basis of Progressive thinking.
Yet another case in point: An Illinois school finds it necessary to segregate “Latinx”, Black, and (presumably) Whites/Asians in the teaching of… Precalculus?

Whe are they doing this? Is it really just the belief that different races have different “ways of knowing” and that teachin “White” precalculus oppresses Black and Hispanic students because they are biologically or spiritually unable to grok it? Or perhaps this is an attempt to hide racial disparities in grades and testing by making a less rigorous or otherwise easier and thus less valuable class?
Yet again, attempts to achieve educational “equity” harm the most who are purportedly supposed to be helped.
