We had slavery but then we had Abolition; we had the institutionalized suppression of women but then we had the Women’s Suffrage movement; we had segregation but then we had the Civil Rights movement. We’ve been awful before, and we’re going to fix it just like our ancestors did.

Corporate conglomerate news organizations putting women in front of the cameras to front their common narratives is *not* the feminist revolution.
This must be a first: ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN will all have women journalists as their chief White House correspondents with the incoming Biden administration.

We didn’t go over the cliff. Clearly we’re still only inches away from it, but for me that doesn’t take away a sense of relief that at least we get another chance.

This is one of those nights when you can feel your emotions shared by millions of other people. Together we endured a trauma and avoided a calamity. Relief, gratitude and love are in the air.
