The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is funding a movement that claims long-standing mathematical practices are “racist,” according to a new report.
The Gates Foundation has given nearly $140 million over the past decade to groups claiming that “asking students to show their work and find the right answer is an inherently racist practice,” reports the Washington Free Beacon.
“The Education Trust, a California-based group that promoted the September release of Pathway’s antiracist ‘toolkit,’ has received $86 million from the Gates Foundation, including a $3.6 million grant awarded in June,” the outlet reported. “Teach Plus, another group dedicated to creating an antiracist culture in K-12 schools, has received more than $27 million from the Gates Foundation.”
“The group’s board members include former Democratic congressman George Miller and Obama-era secretary of education John King Jr.—who is also the president of The Education Trust.”
The fact the Gates are involving themselves in nearly every aspect of society is a fact not lost on the increasingly aware – and increasingly cynical – general public, many of whom are starting to question the Gates’ true motives.
For one thing, Gates is suggesting that Western countries should start eating “100% synthetic beef.”
“So no, I don’t think the poorest 80 countries will be eating synthetic meat. I do think all rich countries should move to 100% synthetic beef,” he said. “You can get used to the taste difference, and the claim is they’re going to make it taste even better over time.”
