Our Goal:
Our goal is to educate others on the terms and talking points misused by the right. For example, we want to help end the word "woke" being used as a pejorative. Republican Senators, House members, and leaders like Ron DeSantis have often misused the word "woke" as something that belied American ideologies. This misinformation is then spread on conservative networks. However, if one looks further into history, the term "woke" is often used to describe people aware of and actively working to challenge social injustice.
