Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional Chinese values, folklore, and spirituality are deeply embedded in the narrative. Masculinity, family, and morality are treated with respect, and there is little sign of cultural revisionism or subversion of longstanding traditions.

Not Woke
