> I like your definition of woke My kids are grown adults (no grand kids) so I can look at it more objectively perhaps from a conservative parent's point of view. We've been dealing with what to teach our kids for a long time and the issue will never go away. I can remember adults complaining that their kids had to pledge allegiance to God every morning when in elementary schools in the 60's. Then there were battles over sex education when I was in junior high. I was given a failing grade on a paper in High School by a teacher who told me my paper on plate tectonics (a new discovery at the time) was contradicted by The Bible. The conflict will never end as long as we have public schools in America. "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." "Woke" is just a shorthand for education in public schools that are liberal interpretations of religious (esp creationism vs evolution), sex and civil rights matters.
