Fun fact: Before ebil white colonists showed up in the 19th century sub-saharan africans counted by scratching tally marks in hyena bones and hadn't fully mastered multiplication and division yet.

The entire thing is based on an overzealous claim (the law of sines is essentially just the area formula for triangles and doesn't need sin^2+cos^2=1) in a book written by high school teacher - the same book famous for cataloguing 366 known proofs as of 1940, many of them very simple. There is absolutely no reason for anyone to give a shit about this except for diversity propaganda. However much you hate corporate media, it's not enough.

Sure, let's run with that.

>Eurocentric math curriculum
Give one fucking example in all of recorded history where white mathematicians deliberately suppressed a mathematical algorithm or theory just because it was invented by nogs. Africans were still doing math by carving tally marks into hyena bones before colonialism.

Wikipedia, iirc surrounded by a lot of cope about how africans didn't want your stupid wheels anyway.

Why is this even a question? Blow it off. Or if you feel like making a point write about the noble pre-colonial african mathematicians struggling mightily to complete the theory of long division. Here's some source material:

As of the start of colonialism and the knowledge sharing it brought, sub-saharan africans had never invented the wheel or developed mathematics to the point of mastering division. Today the ones who live separated from outside influence and assistance are still hunting gazelles in loincloths and going home to mud hut villages. If anything 70 is way too high.

>it seems like a good opportunity to study which approach to academics produces better results in the sciences.
Or you could open a science history book and compare the states of pre-colonial European and African science.
