At this point in 2022, the only people who use the word "woke" are non-POC people who equate "woke' to an amorphouse movement that is going to force them to accept marginalized people and communities and they so not want to do that ... so when know that by that term after today, you're telling on yourself and are quietly being judged. carry on. |

I mean Use that term today
as in it's been bastardized, politicized and demonized into a caricature of what it used to mean when conscious POC used to use it. At this point, it's as archaic as "on fleek" or "jive turkey" or some other outdated jargon that made it's way out of the originating culture and into mainstream nonsense press |
Keep telling yourself that. You live in a bubble. |
Says you. Not the case for everyone else. |
nope not even close. |
There were serious issues in the community and with some students in the past. I applaud the new hos for trying to change the school for the better. It seems to be much more diverse and inclusive than it was 5-10 years ago. |
Actually, PP pretty much nailed it. On another note — shouldn’t you be raging about the war on Christmas? |
This exact sentiment (past Landon had issues, new head is charting new course) shows up in too many posts on these forums not to have initiated at Landon. A better question for these forums might be, "Is Landon the only school with an active DCUM presence?" |

We are not at Landon and while not a Trump R Im not sure I would agree that a senior, who has been at the school for 3 years and assuming without incident, gets cut from a team unless there is something in the policy already regarding a tattoo.

| When did "jive turkey" go out of usage? |
I didn’t know Landon had water polo wow that’s kind of cool. I’m curious what other schools they play against? Who else has a water polo team? |

The woke keep canceling words when they get called out. Defund the police, Country founded in 1619, CRT for elementary school, Woke, etc. Then they revise and attack, like the Thought Police, culling anyone that doesn’t fall in line and behave the same. |
If you don’t like what’s happening, pull ur kids out |
I think that the PP was referring to the left in general, and not Landon. |
