@ChantelleCrouther [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : @RitaPanahi #woke is one of the most misused words. Ppl say it when they mean someone who they class as cultist. In 1940’s #LeadBelly used “stay woke” in explicit association with Black Americans' need to be aware of racially motivated threats & the potential dangers of white America. #BLM [URL redacted]

Supplementary #TheoryLinguisticsSocioAfricanAmericanVernacularEnglishAAVE i.e. "African American Vernacular English (AAVE) is the variety formerly known as Black English Vernacular or Vernacular Black English among sociolinguists, and commonly called Ebonics outside the academic community. While some features of AAVE are apparently unique to this variety, in its structure it also shows many commonalties with other varieties including a number of standard and nonstandard English varieties spoken in the US and the Caribbean. AAVE has been at the heart of several public debates and the analysis of this variety has also sparked and sustained debates among sociolinguists." https://www.hawaii.edu/satocenter/langnet/definitions/aave.html
