Jaiube Mandiela- Thought 7 Aug 16

I'm Jajube. Thought 7. Woke. On Saturday I had a very brief conversation about the term "woke". I came across it about a few years ago and I really love it because it makes me think of Plato's philosopher's cave…where there are people who think that the shadows on the wall is reality…but actually, there are other people creating those shadows…and only a philosopher king can wake these people up to the reality outside, to the light outside the cave. And that same night I was going to go somewhere on my phone and I noticed an old one from a year ago called "think plus stay woke"
