From “woke bae” to “woke-a-cola,” the word woke has taken
the internet and mainstream media by storm. But how many people who
use the word actually know what it means? On today’s episode,
Rachelle and Madison (but, really, mostly Rachelle)
explain the decades-old origins of the word, and how its meaning
has evolved as it’s gone from being sung as a call to “stay woke”
by the likes of Erykah Badu and Childish Gambino to being wielded
as a slur by the likes of Mike Huckabee. Podcast production by
Daniel Schroeder, Derek John, and Jasmine Ellis. This episode was
