We've all heard the saying that words have meaning. But do we truly understand it. Ollie Mac doesn't think so. On this episode of Conversations with Ollie Mac, Ollie Mac does a deep dive into the word "woke". This word has taken on a different meaning in this hypersensitive environment to where laws have been established to stop the so called "woke agenda". Ollie Mac also explores the history of "Lift Every Voice and Sing", the Black National Anthem and why the song is important for all people.
