Language & Identity - Sapir Whorf Hypothesis and 'Woke'

Morning all,

We'll finish watching 'Word of the Year' today, and afterwards will focus on the word 'woke' and its evolution.

Please first read this article regarding the Sapir Whorf hypothesis and summarise it on your blogs you should have a summary about this from Monday, so type this up and add to it after reading the article.

Next, read this article on the word 'woke' and summarise what has happened to the word and its usage - why has it become problematic? Also, please do a short meanings and representations analysis for this article.

Any questions let me know.
