Thank you for your comment, and I'm glad you understand the problems that I see with the trend of intolerant, fault-seeking "wokeness."

The number of people taking part in this trend may be relatively very small, but the real problem is the amount of power they possess. That can be because they present themselves as being numerous - hence the "twitter mobs" you often hear of - or because they occupy high positions in society.

I could make a comprehensive list of all the examples I've heard/read about in which people were treated unjustly in the name of "wokeness," but that would probably not be worth the effort. The examples I've given here, including the screenshots of the seminar promoted by Coca-Cola, give what I think is a fair picture of how widely accepted this attitude against whites has become on one level or another. Indeed, a number of private companies (https://ccc.bc.edu/content/ccc/blog-home/2020/05/corporate-citizenship-corporate-citizenship-response-to-protests.html) have explicitly embraced the concept of "racial equity," some probably without having a true understanding of how equity differs from equality.

That said, I should also mention that, at the very highest level of our government, the idea of "racial equity" has found favor. Biden’s recent relief fund bill for farmers has been blocked by several courts because it deliberately left white farmers out regardless of their circumstances (https://www.forbes.com/sites/evangerstmann/2021/06/12/yet-another-federal-court-tells-biden-that-he-cant-exclude-whites-from-his-relief-programs/). Also, the unjust treatment of people for the sake of rectifying historical racism is not necessarily new; it can be found in affirmative action initiatives which, as a New York Times article points out (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/08/us/slavery-black-immigrants-ados.html), have sewn division within the black American community between those descended from slaves and those whose families immigrated voluntarily.

I say all this at the risk of appearing not to care about looking for ways to help those specifically affected by segregation. As I said in another comment, I believe an argument can be made for reparations to victims of segregation as well as their immediate descendants. We did give reparations to victims of the Japanese internment in World War 2. But these reparations would need to be given on the basis of whether or not they were in fact affected by segregation, and not on the simple basis of race.

Once again, thank you for you comment. I hope that this reply gives a clearer picture of my standpoint on this issue.
