Navigating 'Woke' Restrictions in Federal Discourse
This chapter explores the recent federal mandate to remove 'woke' language from government websites, particularly impacting HIV and trans health information. Discussions emphasize the implications of banning keywords on scientific research and DEI initiatives within federal agencies, raising concerns about free speech and representation. The chapter critiques changes in military recruitment policies and educational directives that seek to reshape historical narratives, linking these to broader agendas around nationalism and systemic inequities.
