Cecile Richards said it best...

“So white women, listen up. We've got to do better,” Richards added. “It is not up to women of color to save this country from itself. That's on all of us. That's on all of us.”

As a white woman, I am totally and thoroughly ashamed.

I'm not ashamed because of all the white men who voted for Trump. It's nothing to do with me.

I did not talk and educate as much as I should have. I was over-confident.
