Why is corporate America increasingly stepping in to support "woke" social justice causes?
"These corporations are part of a movement that has been going on in the West and in this country in particular for the last roughly 100 years to move the culture very consistently and very aggressively to the left in order to more or less make ready the path for the revolution," says Steve Soukup, author of the new book "The Dictatorship of Woke Capital: How Political Correctness Captured Big Business."
Soukup joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to explain how activists have hijacked and twisted the purpose of many of the world's largest companies to serve left-wing ends and why Americans need to be concerned about it.
