>Katherine Johnson was a math genius, possibly above the level of Von Neumann and Grothendieck
I though I was the only one believing this.
Blacks have been unjustly ostracized in academia and institutions.
Slavery never really ended.

>>8588190
her accomplishments are no where near Von Neumann's

ITT: bait, very bad bait too, try harder

>>8588150
Crazy to think you watched a movie and now feel like you can safely make that assumption.
Dip shit or b8?

>>8588282
well she literally outperformed all the white men in the movie when it came to calculations

is this true?

>>8588290
Being able to perform calculations != being on the same mental level as Von Neumann

>>8588282
Crazy to think you could fall for such easy bait?

>>8588150
/pol/ stop trying to strawman the sjws and just go back to your containment board. You're worse than they are.

>>8588713
SJW's are actually saying that she is a greater mathematician than white men?

>>8588709
what do you mean it doesn't equal being on the same mental level as Von Neumann

isn't that what Von Neumann did?

>>8588794
No one is. This is obviously a /pol/ strawman.

>>8588814
i see

>>8588150
She don't look like a nigger

DELETE THIS

>>8588150
Back to >>>/pol/

>>8588150
where are today's minority women in math? Or is this movie just an SJW meme?

That's what I thought

>>8588713
Actually it's probably /tv/ doing the posts.

>>8589370
NO

what is going on here

stop shitting on OP racists

>>8588150
Fuck off back to /pol/

>>8588797
Just because you can multiply two 8 digit numbers in your head doesn't mean that you're going to solve a math conjecture, also multiplying two 8 digit numbers is easier than you might think, I'm currently reading a book about the Trachtenberg system(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trachtenberg_system) which makes multiplication, division, squaring and even square rooting way easier, so easy in fact that you can do it in your head, this makes me wonder if little johnny actually rediscovered the Trachtenberg system or another system similar to like Vedic math(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_Mathematics_(book)).

I take it she's "Obama" black, which just means "white" but can use the "black" card for their advantage.
