It is a lie that women have been able to vote since 1920. 

White women have been able to vote since 1920. All Native American women couldn’t vote until 1924. All Asian women couldn’t vote until 1952. All Black women couldn’t vote until 1964.  

In five years there is probably going to be some big centennial celebration of women’s suffrage. But that will be a whitewashing of history. It will be an event that erases the struggles of non-white women. It will be an event that will try to hide the fact that white feminists heros like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton actively argued against the rights of people of color in order to advance their own goals.

I loved Gracie for whatever reasons. That I was sure of. I hadn’t fallen in love with Gracie’s face, or her legs, or her bust, or her voice, or her timing. I fell in love with the whole package. But she did have great timing. And years later when we were rich, I still loved her. I still love her today. So whatever reasons at first, it worked. It worked for a long, long time.

You will learn, my dear, as women we control so little of our destiny. Men do. The outcome is that we hate each other, but we should not.
