More perspective on the white woman swing from D to R in VA

35. 🤔...

I'm still a relatively quite a recent DU'r so I don't know what the DUhistory/interactions are with you and fellow DU'rs to say that.

Is it like a given - 'We know some of you (ww) have mostly/or always been with us so you should know we're not talking about you' kind of thing?

If that's so, then, ok I see that. All is well! 👍 👍


Bc being recent here - at first as an older white woman NYC'r who's 1st gen Greek-American mom quite sublimely learned about (not only Southern, but Northern racism as well) resisted, and taught me about racism starting around age 9-10; and from there I learned more by listening to, and reading Afro-American povs, and experiences I do my best to be a real ally. And she would point out things for decades to come. I'm aways learning - that statement doesn't give a friendly atmosphere.

I've never voted Republican, or Conservative since I was in the first year ('71) of 18 yr voters. Have mostly tried to vote the most liberal/progressive people in all these years.
So I'm in that ? 40% +/- of ww and happy to be there. 👍
