Description
The “Woke Movement” and “wokeism” are terms that seem to be thrown around EVERYWHERE on the internet these days. On one side, you have people wondering why their friends and family are suddenly hating the values they grew up with. On the other side, people who have a genuine concern for justice and the marginalized are trying to help THEIR friends and family see their concerns and side of the story. Where does it all leave us?
Today, I’m sitting down with Noelle Mering, author of Awake, Not Woke to discuss what the woke movement even is, where it comes from, where it’s misguided, and what we can do about it in our everyday lives. I know this sounds like a super political episode, but we really stress the importance of seeing the PEOPLE on both sides of the woke argument with the love and dignity they deserve as children of God.
My challenge to you this week is to share this with someone who disagrees with you on this topic, so that you may engage in a loving, fruitful conversation and see the GOOD in each other ❤️
