'Badass' Stacey Abrams DEMOLISHES these 'cowards'

Published | Video Starts at 41:25

What can white women, white people do to be in solidarity with people who are under the most vicious attacks from Trump? We should remember that DEI means everyone. Diversity means all people. There are very few people who aren't benefited by DEI. If you have a job and you are part of a labor union, your DEI, if you take advantage of the Family Medical Leave act, that's a DEI law. If you, I don't know, were a white man educated in the Appalachian Mountains in the last 35, 40 years, even if you've become the Vice President, United States, you benefited from DEI because the Department of Education was a DEI creation. (41:25–41:41)
