The thinking that everything will change if only one of “us” is promoted to the top spot is rampant in business as well and has shown the same fallacy. It ignores that to get to the top of any corporate or political hierarchy you have to play the game by the rules that have already been set, thus making you already one of “them.” Former President GW Bush once said something to the effect that the office of the president has limited power within the system at large. There is only so much that s/he can do. To think that electing anyone based on their immutable characteristics will all of a sudden change the system is just foolish.

White women are helpless to do anything positive on their own *but* they do have the power to destroy hope and progress. 🤷🏻‍♀️
