The Woke Report for the week of September 24,2023

Beginning with the election of Joe Biden, republicans and right-wing conservatives have continued attacking and seeking revenge on anyone who opposes their agenda. More corporations are facing new boycotts, they are bypassing lower courts rulings and taking their cases to conservative supreme courts, new challenges are still being added over the 2020 and 2024 election. Right-wing conservative groups are continuing the take over of school board and now local city and county government boards, all the while continuing to ban books and eliminate diversity and equality studies from grade schools through college. Are they ever going to do something to improve our lives?
