“White women elected Trump. Black, brown, trans and queer women have been doing this for far longer and at far greater peril.” Any kind of real solidarity from allies has got to start with acknowledging these truths.

Acknowledge white privilege, and acknowledge who has been fighting for equality from day one, and then use that privilege to help put marginalized people in charge.

Very good post. Eradicating white supremacy within the self is the hardest and most important eradication – and it requires constant tending.

Also would like to note one thing: that OP states white women organized the march. There may have been white women organizers, but the march could not have happened without three organizers: Tamika Mallory, Carmen Perez, and Linda Sarson. x 

Let’s recognize that this women’s march, the largest protest march in US history, was started by three women of color.
