It turns out there was never a war on women in this country. There never needed to be.
Women have never had equality in the U.S. Constitution, health care, pay or opportunity.
And women of color have been afforded even less equality than white women.
According to the recent election, it seems that the majority of Americans want it that way, sadly, including many white women.
It’s deeply heartbreaking.
