If you’ve kept up with the latest political headlines and aren’t afraid to have an opinion against them, you’re likely “woke.” The term also originates in Black culture, and Erykah Badu’s “Master Teacher” is believed to be where it was uttered for the first time in the mainstream. You might have also heard Congresswoman Barbara Lee use it in 2017. “We have a moral obligation to ‘stay woke,’ take a stand and be active,” she said, which got her quoted in the dictionary.
