Beware, Wokery is Increasing
By Michael Curtis
The list is growing of historical figures or public personalities who views are considered by the woke brigade as unacceptable, backward, or bigoted. It raises not only the changing assessments of these figures, but also whether one can enjoy a work or activity which is regarded as unacceptable for present-day political or cultural reasons, or for being the product of an unenlightened era.
A number of incidents in 2021 illustrate manifestation of bigotry and cancel culture. One concerns a German artist, Jess de Wahls, a textile artist born in East Berlin, whose work has been removed from the gift shop of the Royal Academy after trans activists accused her of expressing “transphobic views” in a blog she posted in 2019. Apparently, she criticized “gender identity ideology” and Stonewall, the LGBT charity, which has been accused of fostering a climate of intolerance in workplaces in the UK. Miss de Wahls wrote in her blog that a woman is an adult human female and not an identity or feeling. She could not accept assertions that people are in fact the opposite sex to which they were born.
