Most of the racially debated issues these days can be summed up by the terms 'critical race theory' and 'wokeism' – terms that have become the defining issues of our time even though half the people can't explain them and the other half use them for political gain to dictate how history is taught, stripping it of any mention of slavery, racism, and LGBTQ+ people. So, I'd like to reframe the debate and ask whether there is a middle ground where we can reject racist hatred while attempting to understand it and teach the truth about past social injustices to present and future generations – to keep our children from hating our country and each other.
