Just thought as this has come up on different threads that I would share the link to a BBC programme looking at the origins of the use of the word "woke" (not saying it is 100% accurate).
Seems another instance of a word having specific meaning for a specific community reflecting the reality of their discimination, being appropriated by those from the majority community it was a warning about, to imply somehow they are not part of the problem.
