Reply #1: the purity of mathematics

[Tansy_Gold]

There is no bigotry in math. The numbers know no color, no race, no creed, no language.

Maybe if we could universalize the teaching of mathematics, from pre-school counting rhymes through advanced calculus, we could reach a point where learning ability is accepted, biases are reduced or eliminated, and all can learn with equal opportunity.
