Summary

Fran and Tamia are taking the word back. Before it was weaponized, "woke" had roots — Black American roots. In this episode the Sistas trace the word's origins, its appropriation, and then prove what Trek fans already know — Star Trek has been unapologetically woke since 1966. From the classic episodes you already know to the unsung gems you may have missed. 🎧Subscribe and don't miss a single episode of Season 6! ______________________________________________ NAACP 2023 Resolution 🌐 Website: https://naacp.org/resources/reclaiming-word-woke-part-african-american-culture Associate Producers: Sailor Marj, Karen Dramera, Stephanie Baker & Chris Garis Logo: Dena Massenburg Music: "Poppin off the Rip" by RAGE (YouTube Audio Library) The SyFy Sistas Podcast — named 2025 Best All-Around Star Trek Podcast by TrekMovie Support us on Patreon: patreon.com/syfysistas Subscribe, Like, Share: linktr.ee/syfysistas Find us on The Trek Geeks Podcasts Network: trekgeeks.com FanSets — Our pins have character.
