I totally agree with you, and I agreed with you twenty-five years ago, too. Although I was arguing with my own father, then. Great post, Alison.

I was furious. It was as if American women and black Americans were competing for a piece of a zero-sum pie. (Like the author wrote, “All the Women Are White, all the Blacks Are Men, but Some of Us Are Brave.”) Furious... but not sure with who or what. I didn’t think either candidate should bow out, I was just upset that it played out that way. But once a candidate was selected... so cool that a black american was able to win the presidential election. Actually, I hated the Democratic primaries. I was furious.

The race was close, so I could have been right. I’m happy the Democratic primaries were between a black man and a white woman. The race was close, so I could have been right.
