Time to put bigotry’s anti-‘woke’ attacks to bed

I’m sick and tired of hearing bigoted attacks on diversity under the banner of opposing “woke” people and institutions. Those attacks are nothing but a desperate attempt by white, straight men to hold onto the position of privilege they have had in our culture but that they are slowly losing to an increasing awareness of how wrong white male supremacy is.

“Woke” is simply awareness of the traditional wrongs of the dominant culture in this country and a desire to remedy them. Every time we hear an attack on “woke” we should scream “bigot!” in reply.
