The foundation of WOKE relations existed in 1964

From the Youngbloods

Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

If you hear the song I sing
You will understand, listen
You hold the key to love and fear
All in your trembling hand
Just one key unlocks them both
It's there at your command
Come on, people now

Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

My teenage grandson, who is yet to learn 'modern' history thinks Boomers are racist and always have been.

I think it may not hurt to spread the history around beyond him
