Well, we already could feel that we've turned the corner.. but it will still take time for all the things that wokeness has ruined to recover... The workplace, movies, tv shows, video games.. but finally people have hope.

Identity politics may get complicated ...for example Presidential hopeful Kamala Harris was born in Oakland California, raised in Berkley and later a wealthy neighbourhood of Montreal, Quebec Canada, her mom was a biomedical researcher and her dad a Stanford Economics professor, she is part Black, part East Indian, her husband is Jewish and her step children would be Jewish/Irish American whom many people would identify as White.

You can't skew or redefine "woke". It is what it is. Meaning we will always be alert to the racists.
