""diversity,""global warming," and"liberal" as words that have been"redefined or tarnished by conservatives."to proudly use words and pet phrases such as ‘family values,’ ‘conservative’ and ‘patriot’ – no matter who or what is associated with the terms," Blake wrote.
"’Woke’ is defined as being ‘actively aware of social injustice.’ But Republicans have turned it into a slur," according to CNN. "They didn’t say they didn’t want their children sitting next to Black or brown kids when opposing desegregation of public schools; they said they were against ‘forced busing,’" Blake wrote."They didn’t say they opposed civil rights leaders’ efforts to make the US a genuine multiracial democracy; they called those leaders ‘communists’ or ‘socialists.’"
