So as far as math, the focus of getting the correct answer and showing your work is because of "white supremacy culture".

There is a nugget of wisdom here -
A good math question is only going to have one right answer, yes.
The student should be able to use the information given and find it.
The student should also be made aware, that in real life situations, that some of the information given may be inaccurate, and they should be able to show how changes in some of the information they were given might change their answer.
However, none of this has anything to do with race, of course.
This teacher is probably trying to tie this tweak in the math curriculum to racism simply to get attention and make people afraid of opposing her.

And you're just now realizing this type of thing is happening?
When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.
