Nachdem "woke" anscheinend zum Schimpfwort degeneriert ist, sollte man sich doch einmal klar machen, was der Begriff eigentlich bedeutet:
Wachheit in Bezug auf #Rassismus, #Ableismus und #Geschlechtsdiskriminierung.
In diesem Sinn bin ich gern woke.

Some years ago, when I was academic dean at Philander Smith College (now university) in Little Rock, I hired Pat to chair the psychology department there, and then discovered that she attended Ouachita Baptist University when my uncle was academic v.-p. there. My aunt was her English teacher at Ouachita, and she was in school with a number of my cousins, including two who are now Baptist ministers.
The words in /1 above are found around the 1.00.30 mark in the video.

I don't actually do church any longer. As I told my friend Wendell today after he reminded my husband and me that we always have a home at his church, like a lot of gay folks, we carry a certain among of heavy baggage when it comes to church. We bear scars that are in many ways unique to the LGBTQ community, in connection with church.
Even so, we're deeply grateful to our friends Wendell and Pat and to the loving people of New Millennium.
"Guess what? God is woke. You can't have Resurrection Sunday without having a woke Jesus. … The wokeness of God is what we celebrate on Easter Sunday."
Thus says my friend Wendell Griffen, pastor of New Millennium Baptist church in Little Rock (Arkansas, USA). I was invited to New Millennium today by Wendell and his wife Pat as their newest granddaughter was welcomed and celebrated by the church with a dedication ceremony.

my 2 cents about this #woke idiocy.
#woke is a word that comes from the black experience, black culture, i feel even weird using it as a white person who doesn't have that experience, it is a word that is loaded of meaning for a specific group of people.
what MORONS think woke is: politically confused 15 year olds on tiktok with 4 hair colors who change their political ideology every other day (which is BTW also OK at that age, FFS, let kids be kids, it is healthy to rebel as a kid!).
When smart women realize that Right Wing Assholes have been lying to them the whole time.
"...while launching his Quebec election platform, Poilievre pledged to end “the imposition of woke ideology in the federal public service and in the allocation of federal funds for university research.”"
Straight out of the Trump playbook. It's pretty fucking abysmal that mainstream journalism has not picked up on this aspect of the CPC platform.

Policy OptionsThe many dangers of Pierre Poilievre’s war on ‘woke’Pierre Poilievre’s anti-woke crusade mirrors U.S. far-right tactics and risks eroding Canada’s democratic and inclusive values.
Trump is demanding universities change policies or face defunding. Would Poilievre do the same? https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poilievre-trump-univrersities-defund-1.7512547 CBC by Mark Gollom - the word #woke is not in the official conservative.ca site "Policy Declaration" or in fact on their web site- yet he has said often "put an end to the imposition of woke ideology..." So if you wanted to understand what #PierrePoilievre stands for you couldn't get that from their web site- #smokeandmirrors #ConservativepartyofCanada #CDNelection2025 #cdnpoli
CBCTrump is freezing funding for universities they don't adr | CBC NewsU.S. President Donald Trump has been threatening to cancel funding for some universities unless they accede to his demands to change ideological policy, similar to a pledge Pierre Poilievre has made for Canadian post-secondary schools.
On social issues, Pierre Poilievre echoes Trump's plan to get rid of “woke” policies in the Canadian Forces, though what that means is not entirely clear. Are we returning to closeted gays? Kicking the women out? Antitrans is obvious, but what else? Pierre'd also cut funding to universities that do socalled “woke” research. The federal government directly funds some university studies, but most funding come from arm's length agencies #poilievre #trump #woke https://www.thestar.com/opinion/contributors/pierre-poilievre-the-politician-is-a-man-of-many-promises-i-wrote-the-book-on/article_b00b48e3-6be4-44a5-a585-8e3f709450cd.html
Toronto Star · Pierre Poilievre, the politician, is a man of many promises. I wrote the book on him, and these are the ones I think he’s most likely to keep
Si no recuerdo mal en #HorizonZeroDawn había una sociedad matriarcal; por un motivo distópico. ¿Me equivoco? También #woke, supongo, je je.
"Als Jude in Harvard habe ich die letzten Monate selbst erlebt, wie meine Universität für mich, und wohl jeden, der in irgendeiner Verbindung zu Israel stand, zu einer feindseligen Umgebung wurde. Unmittelbar nach den Verbrechen durch die Hamas am 7. Oktober 2023 gaben über 30 Studentenorganisationen in Harvard eine gemeinsame Erklärung ab, in der sie Israel allein für den Terror der Hamas verantwortlich machten und das Massaker als »Widerstand« der Palästinenser rechtfertigten."
Sam #Warach, "Unter ihrer Führung wurde Harvard für uns Juden zum Feindesland", am 10. Januar 2024 auf der Webpräsenz der Jüdischen Allgemeinen.
Und irgendwann wird dann nur mehr von linken Studenten in deutschen Universitäten im Rahmen ihres #Antisemitismus für die #Hamas protestiert und randaliert werden. Die Palästinenser selbst jedenfalls wollen sie immer weniger.

Stories of overseas #students in the #US worried about #deportation hits home personally because I was once an overseas student in the US and had a great time, and felt safe. It's idiotic policy, but it's likely playing well with brainwashed #MAGA fools prejudiced against #academia (#woke, privileged) and #foreigners (scary). #HigherEducation is, in fact, one of #America's finest achievements which does much good for the US and the world

@teslatakedown.com I’m now seeing lotsa #Tesla cars in Murfreesboro, #Tennessee. This is a deep red #Trump district represented by Dr Scott DesJarlais even *after* court testimony revealed he pointed a gun at his girlfriend and *patient* pressuring her to get an #abortion. I suspect used Teslas are being shipped here where they won’t be torched 
or keyed 
.
The funny part is that #Republican state legislators blocked electric 
️ charging station infrastructure because it was #woke.
Le terme anglo-américain woke (« éveillé ») désigne initialement le fait d'être conscient des problèmes liés à la justice sociale et à l'égalité raciale. En raison de son adoption croissante au-delà de ses origines afro-américaines, le terme est devenu un fourre-tout utilisé pour désigner et généralement critiquer des militantismes souvent centrés sur la défense des droits de groupes minoritaires et qui visent à promouvoir la justice sociale.

But, Prof. Chibber, please allow me to respond.
FUCK YOU!
Maybe it it the "class and capitalism are all that matters" Left that has FAILED. Maybe YOU have failed to offer #BIPOC and other marginalized groups even one goddamn solution that would actually improve our lives and protects us from a #racist, bigotted #WhiteSupremacy which has existed and hurt us for centuries.
Shut your goddamn mouth whimpering about how #Woke and #CRT have ruined the Left & gave us Trump. That was YOUR team's fail.
