Woke
adjective
aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)
Being woke to gender discrimination is difficult; it ruins things you love. Entire canons of art are rotten to the core with it.— Rachel Edelstein
-> often used in contexts that suggest someone's expressed beliefs about such matters are not backed with genuine concern or action
Enter the age of the performatively woke brand. Politics has become a kind of fashion accessory for corporate America these days, a way to profit from protest.— Jon Gingerich
