What We Think

Despite having what were progressive themes for its time, 'Little Women' remains refreshingly non-woke by modern standards. It champions family, individuality, and virtue without sacrificing character or story for ideology.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Alcott’s story is first and foremost about relatable, well-rounded characters and classic coming-of-age themes. While the March sisters display ambition and independence, these attributes serve the narrative naturally, never feeling like identity politics override character depth.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, faith, and traditional virtues are constantly upheld. Even as Jo bucks some gender norms, the story never mocks traditional values, if anything, it reinforces them, while gently expanding the definition of womanhood for its time.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Different worldviews are presented, whether in Amy’s traditionalism or Jo’s yearning for independence. No single ideology dominates, and even unconventional ambitions are balanced with respect for family and tradition.
