Look for updates in this space in my mathematical work with The Prison Math Project and Human Restoration Project. Those are the vectors that are aligned to my purpose and passion in education. Those are the places offering hope that mathematics can truly be rehumanized through content and relationships.

It might as well have been dropped off by aliens in a test tube on a beach one hundred years ago. The inert and sterile nature of current mathematics hasn’t changed much. We just have better technology and pedagogy. It’s like watching a colorized version of an old movie.

There is no story. They don’t know it or either they don’t care to know it. They just want back full control of the narrative to position mathematics as a subject aligned to authority and compliance. 

In education, the idea that one can master many ideas in a short period of time, and be subsequently tested to confirm this delusion, is one of the first bricks in the education’s wall that must be removed.

Grades are not only statistically useless, they have been acting as academic gatekeepers for millions of students, unjustly sorting, sifting, and selecting which students get to go where and why. 

The road back home to mathematics, while lightly traveled, remains in wait for each one of us.

I seem to be in the middle of everywhere. But, I feel in the center of nowhere.
