African-American women can, more than any other group, be proud that they are bringing progressive ideas into reality. White women too often have a majority voting Republican, and a majority of white men always vote conservative, but not African American women. Black men aren't slacking in their work to make sure the Dems win either. African Americans should be proud, and we white folks should be grateful to them. I know I am.
