What does woke mean? Learn about wokeness, its origin, and why it has become controversial.

You may have heard this hotly debated buzzword. Perhaps you feel sidelined in conversations about social justice issues and are surprised by how quickly its meaning has changed from a compliment to a slur.

This is not a critical race theory book or a cancel culture guide, but it explains these highly nuanced concepts. In today’s amplified “fake news” environment, we need a straightforward and unbiased social justice book for adults.

Navigate woke culture and understand its terminology without a political or social science degree.

Nina Thom has written this well-researched, anti-racist book for adults to help you distinguish between “genuine” and “performative activism.” This is the ultimate wokeness book that explains the societal impacts on politics, education, sports, and the arts.

In your copy of Woke or Not? A Guide to Woke for Older People, explore:

● social justice activism examples such as BLM, LGBTQIA+ rights, and climate justice, among others

● what most people think about being woke or not

● the sensitive topics of white fragility and racism

● how woke is not left or right, but a progressive ideology of the Gen Z and Millennials, inherited from the Gen X and Boomers

● how to be a woke ally to young people at the forefront of social justice reform

And much more!

Update your knowledge about the impact of diversity, equity, inclusion, and ESG initiatives on the economy and society.

Read this simple book of woke to demystify a complex topic and expand your understanding of everything it has to offer!
