In some public schools math teachers do more than teach algebra and geometry — they give their students lessons intended to purge what they consider racism.
The "anti-racist education" program in place at Newton Public Schools in Newton, Mass., a wealthy, liberal niche of the Bay State, has angered some parents who believe the school district is more concerned about political correctness than teaching math skills.
According to benchmarks for middle school education, the top objective for the district's math teachers is to teach "respect for human differences." The objective is for students to "live out the system-wide core value of 'respect for human differences' by demonstrating anti-racist/anti-bias behaviors."

I can just see it now... Our new math questions for "tolerance": If Tyrone knocks up six bitches in his gang, and there are 27 bitches in his gang, what percentage of bitches in his gang did Tyrone knock up?
DMX was going to meet Jay-Z off Crenshaw Blvd. in Compton. At this point, DMX remembered that his stupid ho had smoked his whole rock the night before. He finds his ho, slaps her for smoking too much crack, gets his money and goes to Outkast's house. Crack costs $10 a rock. DMX's ho costs most people $5 dollars, but if its a gangsta she only charges $2. The ho services seven gangstas, six crack heads, and an crooked cop last night. However, she kept $4 from DMX so she could by a 40 this morning. How much money does DMX have? How much crack can he buy, assuming a rock can be divided into no more than four quarters? If DMX and Jay-Z both smoke the same amount of crack, how many quarters of a rock will each smoke by the end of the day?
