Woke This Mornin’, Feelin’ Round For My Shoes
25th February 2021
If you’re woke, you believe that:
- Saying that people should be judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin is racist.
- White people who perform African-American spirituals or sing the “Black National Anthem” are engaging in cultural appropriation, and are racists.
- When a black man who commits a crime is arrested by a white cop, that cop is a racist. The white prosecutor who prosecutes him is a racist. White members of the jury who vote to convict him are racists.
- The fact that the number of black nuclear physicists in America is lower than the proportion of blacks in the general population is proof that STEM teachers are racists, university administrators are racists, and companies in the nuclear tech industry are systemically racist.
And so on. Readers can supply additional examples — we all know the drill.
