Hey there, Dr. Witten.

Some historical examples of dog whistles that come to mind:

President Regan’s declaration of “welfare queens” during his administration.

White American students claiming they didn’t get into prestigious universities like Harvard or UCLA, because universities allegedly prefer Asian or Black students via affirmative action policies rather than merit.

Aaron Rodgers, Joe Rogan, and other types use of the terms “woke mob” or “woke culture.”

Calling Black Americans who were wrongly killed by police “thugs” or “hoodlums.”

Let me know if these help. Thanks for reading!
