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?

No, my point is that the curriculum itself is probably beneficial to the students.  I didn't see an indication in the article that race would actually be discussed as part of math class, or that they hoped to treat any student differently based on race.

You can tell a simplified version of our history where Democrats of the past are the only villains, but even if you believe it, you forget that both parties have changed since then, and neither party is really working on those issues.  You're like Kramer who is finally ending his one-man strike at the bagel shop. You're focused on old news.

Trying to outlaw the practice for what, 48 years now?  Come on man!

For all of 2017 and all of 2018, they had majorities in the house, Senate, state legislatures, and the us supreme court. They had the presidency.
Yet there are no new enforced abortion laws at any level of government to show for those two full years.
Are they really trying?
