Well, maybe it’s not “white women” it’s “white Christian women” a demographic I’ve never understood.

Preach! In full disclosure, I’m the only black woman on my state’s Democratic Party’s executive committee and when my term is up, I ain’t running again. I have to be neutral in my position, and I am DONE with that shit. I wanna be free to take off my earrings and deal with this Bernie nonsense once and for all. I want…

Wow. This is a great discussion. I’m a liberal white woman, and I’m cringeing because I’m hearing the truth of this in a way I haven’t before. A few minutes ago I made a post about how black voices are the way forward, blah blah. But yeah...how hard have I tried to make change where it’s needed, as opposed to the…

There is no mistaking who saved the day in Alabama. But the problem is ensuring white liberals (myself included) give them a platform to voice their concerns *early* so they can have a seat at the table up front.

I think it does bear mentioning that while only 38% of white women voted for Jones, that still beats the hell out of the 16% of white women in Alabama who voted for HC. So that 38%, while still a minority, actually represents a pretty significant shift within a short period of time. Rome wasn’t built in a day. There’s…

Yup, that too. But the ineffective mass whining and flailing of white liberals in the face of Trumpism (I honestly think some of them didn’t even realize white supremacy existed until last November), and the self-mobilization and work of Black voters to clean up their trash for them yet again is not lost on me either.

We’re getting to a point where the mistake is more that white liberals think it’s possible *to* fix their house. The myth of the reformed Trump voter is just that.

You think any of us are living in Alabama?

As a Texan (the state with the appalling maternal mortality rate, in part due to Republicans’ war on PP), if we are trying to convince R women to vote Democratic by only talking to them about lowering abortion rates through prevention, i.e.: comprehensive sex ed and better access to contraception, I can get behind…

Didn’t you study proportions in seventh grade Marcia?

I need white liberals to stop trying to “fix” everyone else’s communities once and for all and go work on their own, because clearly the call is coming from inside the house.

I appreciate your response.

I agree it sucks to win ugly like this.

Just take the W, man. Just take it.

Mmmmmmmmhmmmmm.

I haven’t seen Roker’s reaction yet. I feel like once in a while you can count on him to just be straight with the audience even if it makes for uncomfortable TV. Wish he had done that today. As far as Savannah is concerned, I guess I just don’t know what showing integrity would really look like when you walk into…

Maybe show some integrity? Same for Roker and the rest. Their “shocked” responses strain all credibility.

There are Suits fans?

When my kid was younger, I used to talk through what I was thinking before I said thank you: “Earlier today, your uncle did the dishes while I was out with Grandma. He worked hard, and now the dishes are clean, and I’m just so glad I got to spend time with Grandma and come home to clean dishes. Hey, here he comes now.…
