Liberal Speak translation guide update.

by Rod Williams, 5-21-2019 - It has only been five months since I updated. Can you believe that five months ago "woke," to most people, meant to wake from literal slumber? The current liberal definition but not in wide use; now it is everywhere. New liberal-speak enters the vocabulary quicker than I can keep up.

  Intended for use when listening to NPR, mainstream media, academics and liberal politicians. These terms may also be encountered when talking to any liberal.
