Prominent figures challenge "woke ideology" in South Carolina.

Republicans seeking to lead their party in the 2024 presidential race are gathering in South Carolina to take on "woke ideology." The event, Vision '24, hosted by Palmetto Family, is expected to draw more than 400 attendees, including presidential hopefuls Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy. The focus is on the pushback against perceived affronts to conservative ways of life by efforts characterized as "woke." The debate has spilled over into state-level debates over classroom instruction, gender-affirming care for minors, and collegiate diversity programs.
