[quote=Anonymous]To say something is woke is to say that that the place or people are aware of potential injustices (i.e., in my day, we would say, "stay woke" as in, be aware and pay attention). Republicans have tried to co-opt this term and make it negative. We should reject that., it isn't their term (it's like if someone made up a dance and called it the samba. Um, no, the samba already exists). Georgetown is somewhat woke in that they have acknowledged elements of their history that were racist and tried to make amends. Most students there seem to report that there is the ability to challenge ideas, which is great. It is also a very practical school with many going into professional fields. So the good news is that it seems pretty woke.[/quote]
