We’ve often shared stories from journalists or celebrities about “woke” kids of their own or others they’ve say they met. Here’s another: Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal told “The View” a story about what happens when a “woke” kid runs across another who’s unwoke:
.@mgyllenhaal shares about her 12-year-old daughter, who she calls an activist:
"She ran into somebody recently, a little girl her age, who said she wasn't feminist and my daughter was astonished … she came home and cried to me about it." pic.twitter.com/69aMnyAbBJ

Raise your daughters to be strong, independent young women….who cry when they meet girls who don’t buy into the feminist worldview. https://t.co/0ymFoRLQ8M

The age of initial wokeness varies depending on the progressive parent in question, apparently.
