Gotta admit, her statement made me furious. And I'm white. I don't have, gave never had, and will never have the kind of privilege she flouts. Money does a lot. Connections do more.
I also realize how much better and easier I have it than many many other women. My ability is get back up after life has knocked me down is not further hampered like it is for many other people.
It took me a lot longer to get the point of dismissing her comments as tone deafness. I'm probably still not there 100%.
You handled that juxtaposition between pushing for solidarity and the anger really well in your article. It's not always easy is it?
