Speaking Woke
In a front page article in The New York Times on November 1, Amy Harmon does a great job of getting all of us unwoke to wake up by describing the language being used on the left to describe individuals in groups that have historically been excluded, or at least that’s what it seems she is trying to say. I learned about groups I had never heard of in her piece. Here are a few.
BIPOC means Black, Indigenous, or other person of color.
Latinx refers to people o Latin American descent exclusive of their sexual proclivities or gender identity. That’s what the x means.
Birthing parent or pregnant people so as not to discriminate against trans people.
