I suggest one thing it means is that educated Americans need to do a reset on what we mean by "politically correct." The simple fact is that a core constituency of white people just aren't going to "get it" the way the left wants them to. The left wants white America to see itself as profoundly culpable, as the bad guy in the drama. But white people feel like they aren't bad people, and are sick of being told that they are, no matter what they do. It is "woke" to understand that Trayvon Martin and so many other black people would be alive if they had been white.
