What Conservatives Can Do to Fight Corporate Wokeness
Corporate wokeness increasingly is part of American society.
Justin Danhof, general counsel for the National Center for Public Policy Research, argues that Americans can and should stand up to woke ideology.

The girl “came up to me and she had tears in her eyes,” the Florida Republican recalls, adding:
She looked extremely distraught and I was asking her her name. She was really struggling to tell me her name. I asked her where she was from, and I kept hearing this really broken crackle. And I asked the Border Patrol agent. I said, ‘Is she just very upset? What’s going on?’
