“Le wokisme, which the French love to hate, traces its intellectual genealogy back to 1960s French intellectuals,” writes Politico, “…who analyzed and ‘deconstructed’ the language and the symbolism of power, kickstarting a global campus movement.” So why are the French people now rejecting identity politics en masse?
One reason could be found in French law: “Unlike in the United States, where people are commonly asked to self-identify as a given ethnicity, such questions are illegal in France and are seen as a form of racism.” Could similar laws repair the damage of identity politics and woke racism in the United States?
