Letters to the Editor: 'Wokeness,' Dilbert and basic decency in language (via latimesopinion )
I am very disappointed in The Times’ decision to stop publishing the comic strip “Dilbert” because of what the creator said on YouTube. The comic is funny and not offensive, just as J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter” books and movies are entertaining and not offensive.
But, as Ulin says, “thinking before we speak” shows respect and consideration for others, and “it’s neither oppressive nor woke to suggest there could be consequences” for disrespect.We need to take back the word “woke” from Republicans. It is not a derogatory word. We are woke to the needs of women and their rights to make decisions about their own bodies. We are woke to the distorted history of our country that doesn’t flesh out the history of women and people of color.
