Thanks for reading and responding, Lakitha.

There are far too many white men in charge of was too much, making decisions over women’s bodies (hello, Texas) and lives.

Thankfully, more women, women of color, LGBTQ women and disabled women are breaking through. It’s too slow, however. I am hopeful that today’s youth, growing up in a much more openly diverse world than I (a boomer) did, will change things.
