John McWhorter’s Woke Racism is an elegant, essential demolition of today’s ugly racial politics.
‘I write this viscerally driven by the fact that the ideology in question is one under which white people calling themselves our saviours make black people look like the dumbest, weakest, most self-indulgent human beings in the history of our species, and teach black people to revel in that status and cherish it as making us special.’
If you’re looking for a sentence summing up what has gone so very wrong with modern anti-racism, you would do well to find one better than that.
