in regards to the Stop WOKE Act DeSantis’ legal team was asked in court to define the term ‘woke’. What are your thoughts on their response?

Ryan Newman, general counsel for DeSantis answered as follows:

Asked what “woke” means more generally, Newman said “it would be the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.”

From this we can reasonably surmise that the Florida governor supports this response.

Questions:

  • Do you agree that this is the definition of woke? If not, what would your response been had you been DeSantis counsel?

  • Regardless of whether that’s what woke means, do you agree with the statement as presented? Should anything be done about it? Why/why not?
