(58,785 posts)Anti-racism white women have always been the largest and most influential group believing in and working for equality, including racial equality, even before we got the vote. NO advance in equality has occurred in this nation without strong support of pro-equality white women. If we weren't in it, it didn't happen.
(White men, overwhelmingly conservative white men, have always provided the largest, and by far most powerful pro-racism and anti-equality group across the board. We KNOW that.
So what unsung genius first presented the idea to the RW schemers of dividing pro-equality forces by casting all white women as the nation's biggest racists? Evil racist witches and bitches that we all are? Even born into original female sin.
And how INCREDIBLY STUPID are all those who bought into it? Against all history. Against all facts?
But not at all against the underlying, ancient bigotry against women that is the reason so many eager suckers, who imagine they're pro-equality, leaped to believe and spread that Big Lie.
