The slang term “woke” has become synonymous in the United States with a heightened awareness of social injustices, especially those related to race, gender, and identity. Rooted in the fight against systemic oppression, the woke movement has championed critical causes such as Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ+ rights, and feminism, resulting in a significantly improved American civic landscape. 

Recently, the woke movement which is essentially comprised of the urban youth has wholeheartedly backed the pro-Palestine movement in the United States. However, this same woke culture has fallen deafeningly silent on the ongoing atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh by some elements within the Muslim majority.
