> we reject ideas of natural gifts and talents

It's absurd to diminish talent (never mind maintain that it doesn't exist), this is used to marginalize accomplished people (like minorities) and frankly it's hard to see this than anything other than a tactic of bullying and dogmatic ideology.

This part beggars belief. It seems to declare that they'd like to maintain the pretense of teaching math by redefining math to mean critical race theory topics.
