Tom MullalyLife Expansion@wagefreedom·Oct 6, 2016Replying to @vgrWould also like to see honest answers swapping ‘race relations’ with 'women in positions of power’.12
Venkatesh Rao@vgr·Oct 6, 2016Replying to @wagefreedomI think race angle has swamped gender angle entirely. If she wins, stopping Trump might define her more than being 1st woman11
Tom MullalyLife Expansion@wagefreedom·Oct 6, 2016Replying to @vgrFair enough… and people *are* marching over race. Speaking out against women in power can’t be more of a taboo, can it?1
