"Woke" became a thing because people have been asleep for so long. Our American ancestors didn't just "kill a lot of indians." They made several treaties with the native Americans, and broke every one of them. They broke their own laws, the ones they, themselves, made. And they didn't stop with native Americans: slavery, Jim Crow laws, the law didn't even count the murder of a Chinese person in the old west (even though we have the Chinese to thank for half the transcontinental railroad), and so on. I can't begin to list all the details about what I've mentioned, or provide the entire list of people the United States didn't deem worthy of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Therefore being "woke" is actually being not just the true definition of what America always claimed to be, not just a good person who loves their neighbor as they love themselves (the Golden Rule), but an intelligent person who doesn't see themselves as above all the other people who are just like them.
