I believe women of color are coming into power that has never been seen before. They are going to achieve far more than the movements led primarily by white women and become the surge that takes down the white male power structure. As I said upthread, black women have been unappreciated and taken for granted too long. That is going to change.

JAG mention around Christmas that she was heading out for a vacation. It will be good to have her back.
