The Woke Generation - Fighting Back

Post Reply New Topic

Am loving this woke culture , except minor medical staff, at my local VA that are black, seem to like to use the big pro black cultural wokeness to use against , caucasians , I have found , in that they have arbitrarily cancelled my medical appointments after I have travelled quite a ways to be there. And then am informed no supervisor is available, then as a inpatient , was subjected to abuse from a Caucasian male patient the all black medical staff allowed to walk the halls screaming . While they were aware of my stress disorder, and not advise me of when meals were suppose to come, ( all staff that night were black, and seemed subject to the charge nurse)
So was not getting food while hospitalized , Nor was I given my medication at all while I was there. This was a crime, I thought , So I spoke to the male black charge nurse , requesting something be done in the hospital about the screaming man, Their response was , there was nothing they could do. So I asked to speak with the on call doctor.
And was told by the same charge nurse he would not be available till the next day. But the only other black female patient was placed down the hall . Far away from the room this screaming male patient was hanging around, & staying in . Next morning as doctor arrived, I just signed myself out of the hospital due to obvious lack of medical care . So eventually did call the the patients advocates office . And got another black fellow, but I patiently described, what I have here. Never heard back from that office ever again.
The woke culture and the BLM movement from my perspective, has just been a excuse for US black culture to reverse discriminate against other races, whom had nothing to do with their issues . Under all circumstances especially in person, I am not a loud or outspoken person . Initially before this experience was quite the supporter of the BLM movement . Except for destruction of historical monuments . Could support Black lives if they were not in the business of destroying white lives .

None of my schools taught CRT in school and the closest we ever learned about racism was segregation in high school. There was no subject about the Civil war or slavery. My choir teacher did teach some of it in class by telling us about what a song is about we are singing.

My mom knew more than I did because she was the one that told me this stuff and she loves to read so she either taught herself or her school taught it in Wisconsin. She also did live through Jim Crow times and when segregation became outlawed and she was alive when Martin Luther King did his speech and when he was assisinated. She was also pretty woke as a teen because she told me she used to correct her mother on her words like "colored people" because it was the language her mom had grown up with so to her this language was normal.

And I had no idea how bad slavery really was until my thirties until I started watching youtube videos by black people about it than hearing about it from whites. I also saw Huck Finn as an adult and it totally did not sugar coat slavery. I now understood why that book had been banned in schools. Parents didn't want their kids to know what slavery was actually like?

It was a odd situation . About Race growing up . Had read all the info that was presented to me either in written word and or video. And was old enough to understand what I was seeing on the TV and how it applied to racial situations . And knew of lynchings from history . And discrimination , thought how cool it was for Harriet Tubman to do what she had ! .But had little exposure to the black community . So growing up , any person of a different
Skin appearance . Was the same as me, just another child, hopefully looking for a playmate . In my mid teens was exposed to racist teenagers . It was their problem to me , and never saw them engage anyone from a position of hate, only verbalized it . And very strongly. So it alienated a already alienated child.And did not like their company.
But in all this , I had learned early in school how bad hatred of races can be . And did admire, the early activists.
Started to see racism and hatred as bad as potentially murdering someone . But this newer generation of people wanting to blame anyone older, and calling in being woke , has no appreciation of how I am / was taught as a human
. As am older I know so many people in my age group grew up with my same teachings . That it genuinely appears that current generations of black folk are seriously trying to take advantage of a situation . Have grown up around many black professional people in my generation . That it does strike me as the BLM movement is hiding something else. More than trying to take advantage of innocent people , with my experience level ? I respect anyone who is willing to make a effort to improve his lot in a legal manner .
Did not grow up in the South or any place like that, so there could be vastly different points of view.

The thing about teaching CRT is what is it for exactly though? Like what part of is going to kids get certain jobs. What jobs require an education in it?

Oh okay, but why will it cause damage, according to them?
