John McWhorter on Professors Worrying about the Consequences If They Sound Less Than Totally Woke →

Read the essay at the link above in conjunction with my post “The Right Amount of Wokeness.” It is possible to think that a shift toward a higher mean of wokeness is a good thing and still think that (a) the variance of wokeness should be reduced and (b) the bad consequences coming from realizations with too much wokeness should be mitigated. I plan to write a full length blog post of my own on this math.
