Racial and gender bias is not specific to any skin color, sexual orientation, biological gender or national origin.
Bias is bias, regardless of who is doing it or why.
I do not need a test to tell me if I have a gender or racial bias as I know I do not. I know who I am as a person and how I view my spouse, sister, friends and colleagues.
So did we all have a gender bias when we voted for PBO in 2008? Were you screaming about gender bias in 2008? How about 2009? Or 2015?
I do not doubt your heart is in the right place and I believe we need to do more to ensure equality in education, pay and leadership positions for women and minority groups.
I do not believe you get there attempting to degenerate me or others as a person because I support Sanders and not Clinton. My decision to not support Clinton in the primary has nothing to do with her biological gender.
Thank you and I hope you continue to ensure that women have equal access to all services and opportunities.
