Lead Speaker:
Indigo Esmonde
Description of Presentation:
I present an ethnographic study of an activist group that fought against cuts in the Toronto city budget in 2012. I discuss activists’ views on ideology and mathematics, how activists used mathematics, and the emerging division of labor that allowed them to do so despite widespread anxiety around mathematics.
