Amazingness in Canada and NSBP Day 1

Well, here are a few photos from NSBP. I think my favourite is a picture of all of the theorists of West Indian descent:


Top: Peter & Me (both Barbados), Bottom from left: Gert & Stephon (Trinidad), Someone whose name I didn't quite catch, and Clifford Johnson of Asymptotia fame, who hails from two islands, but I can't remember which two (I am tired. Not a jerk, I swear!)

Also, I cannot believe the fucking Globe & Mail, a national newspaper in Canada. Read here for the story about their "Afrocentric Algebra" cartoon. And here for their completely obnoxious response to the complaints about it.

Yeah that's right people. Keep on telling me racism isn't a problem. I dare you.
