In these days of fast-changing terminology, a common word can change its meaning and the implications of being labelled by that word in an instant. "Woke" is a classic example of that.
Nina Thom, author of “Woke or Not: A Guide to Woke for Older People,” joins us to discuss the concept of “woke”, what it is and how it came about.
We also discuss the anti-woke movements and that modern day phenomenon, cancel culture. This is about giving midlife women a comprehensive understanding of woke and its impact on society.
