Just Equations National Policy Director Andrea McChristian joins Roland Martin to discuss our “Calculated Barriers” report, emphasizing why understanding history is critical to dismantling barriers to equity in math education.
McChristian shares how parents can support their students through high school and college pathways: “We encourage parents and family members … to ask students about their math education… to go to their local school board meetings… to read district and state math policies to understand what options and coursework are available to their students.”
Note: The interview begins at the 1:10:00 mark.
