"According to Merriam-Webster, woke means, "aware of and actively attentive to important facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)."

Its resurgence in this decade can be most closely linked to the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement.

Woke became shorthand for a mindset and a worldview that values black lives."
