Students were required to address ‘whiteness’ and describe what the term ‘white’ means, as well as explain how they ‘navigate race’ in their daily lives.

I totally agree about what you say on fox news. I would honestly like to ask you something. Since I am not a native english speaker I am afraid that I must have missed the amount of sarcasm you mention. Would you mind pointing out a few examples so that I have a compass for the future. And I will delete it afterwards.
[edit: I was looking for a better article on the topic but I didn’t find one yet. If anyone has something in mind, please add a comment and I will edit the post and add this link, instead of deleting it as mentioned above]
Any single word in quotation marks. Reread sentences with any single word in quotes as if some conservative know-it-all is rolling their eyes and scoffing at these quoted terms. Putting them in quotes quarantines them from having to be taken seriously and is setting them up for criticism. If they didn’t use quotes for terms they didn’t like, they might be accused of being complicit in the “woke mind virus” that has stupid people so terrified.
Got it, thank you so much.
Looks like some gave you a good explanation. For the record, it didn’t seem like you posted it in bad faith, just that the writer clearly had an agenda. You probably can’t find any other articles mentioning it because it really isn’t much of a story, even though it is cool. The right wing is just trying to rile up their base
