@HughOxford @RadioNightTrain @LBC @mrjamesob I just think the word has been given dozens of definitions and at this point it’s just meaningless. However I agree with your statement but I don’t think the general push for civil rights is to blame.
@HughOxford @insides_un @RadioNightTrain @LBC @mrjamesob Black people used the term "Stay Woke" as a alert, be aware of social injustice, discrimination & danger around you. During Post slavery/ JimCrow Era where driving into "Sundown Towns" could mean death for blacks. Media has changed the word to fit a negative narrative.
