Thank you for the link, but to be technical I think it doesn't fully support your point -- it provides some perspective from 2 different sides of the issue.

That being said, from reading this article as well as this [1] and skimming Boaler's Twitter [2], if I had to guess... this CA initiative sounds like an honest, curious effort to make at least some progress, for which Boaler allegedly received death threats and harassment, as opposed to a "crime against humanity."

Yes, you can make an honest effort to close the achievement gap between Usain Bolt and me by telling him that he can’t run faster than 10 miles an hour.

I think that's a disingenuous take on probably the most controversial part of the program. The proposed guidelines said kids should stay in the same level classes until high school, which doesnt strike me as crazy. That's how it is for every other subject (or it was when I was in school).
